Trade Rumors and Specualtion
-
It's apparently the new and accepted trade-value chart.
I see where you got that- but the results are still the same... The #12 and both the Bills second round picks don't get it done, not even close...

#1 = 1,000
#4 = 490#2 = 717
#12 = 346
Swapping 1/4 for 2/12 is -427 n pick value, which is roughly equivalent to pick #7.But if you add up the values of #51, 53 and 65 ... you get 296 back ... so now you're -131 with the trade
I used the value for pick #33 to represent a 2019 1st round pick value for Buffalo ... which is worth 180 ... bringing the trade to a +49 value for Cleveland, which is the value of a mid-3rd rounder.
But I do understand the argument being made that breaking even or slightly winning isn't the goal, killing it should be. And the truth is that I would expect Cleveland to be able to get #12, 22 and #51 from Buffalo for pick #4 alone ... so if they were to trade #1 I would think it would be for #12, 22, 51 and probably next year's 1st ... but then you're not picking until #4 and you're getting the 4th QB in all likelihood. Hence why in this scenario, the Browns are swapping with the Giants so Cleveland has #2 to still get "their QB" presumably knowing that whoever Buffalo is going to #1 for is not "their" guy (or they wouldn't make the trade).

Nice maths there, James! Even though I'm against this kind of trade (I'm up for #4 in exchange of 12-22-65, though) I have to say that how could these trades work always intrigues me.
As others said, we seek quality not quantity in this draft, but this kind of stuff entertains us till Draft Day

Thanks for the chart... I'll add it to my collection.
Bottom line here is this depends upon us not being set on a top six position player and believing our guy falls to 12. If we're good with our guy at 12, then it's a win all the way around. But....
I just can't see the Giants trading out of #2 when they have a chance of getting their QB of the future.

Think I heard on a podcast that Gettleman has never traded down from his position in the first round as well

Well....maybe the guy they want at #12 would be Ward, or Josh Jackson or Guice or somebody.

I don’t see the Browns drafting Ward, he doesn’t have the takeaway ability that Greg Williams craves or at least hasn’t shown it yet.
Josh Jackson on the other hand sure does.

So where is the evidence it’s a wacky trade that’s not likely to go down?

Logic and reason. I mean I give it high marks for creativity but of the 3 teams in this trade, its the Browns that come out on the short end. I would rather have my choice of QB and one of the top players in the draft then #2 and #12 plus some phantom other stuff.

I am looking forward to lauging at how Hue fuhks up yet another draft.
The Cleveland Browns have the hardest hit players in the NFL -

Just because something isn’t simple doesn’t mean it doesn’t have logic and reason. No one knows what the Browns would get out of it exactly, so no one knows if they’d come out on the short end.
Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks commented on it, logic and reason would tell you it’s more likely to happen than not

"Where is the evidence..." Stop right there. And think.
If trade goes through we will change the title again and make you "poster of the month".

Direct quote from Hue, Building the Browns Episode 1- just watched it today. "We have a (draft) process led by you (Dorsey)". Sorry Tom, when it comes to the draft, Dorsey is calling the shots, not Hue.
"If there was a consensus (general manager) John (Dorsey) had come to, he would've told me," Jackson said. "That's not the case." Dorsey isn't one to tip his hand. Really sounds like Hue's the one in charge there.
Just keep on a trollin' pal- only in your warped mind does Hue have a major say. Spin it however you want- Dorsey and Wolf have the final say. Period.

Why did the Browns take Peppers last draft then, by that logic?

Because he played goalie in youth soccer.
It totally befuddled me why we took a guy who liked to play up closer to the LOS, and played him in punt formation all the time. Of course Dorsey has attacked the secondary vigorously so far.
BEING A BROWNS FAN IS A TEST TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TAKE -
Gumby's Geeky Math, with no trade value book or flow charts..There are 2 true seniors at the top of this draft..Mayfield 48 Games..Bradley Chubb 40 Games..Mayfield has played with 3 different coaching staffs in 4 years(sound like Cleveland?) Maintaining major Stats, with avegege rosters, but the biggest factor of Winning Games..Barkley is a proven great athlete with 38 games. Chubb or Barkley fit Dorsey's BPA at #4..If we value need instead? great Ward or Mikhah are both a small reach at #4. If we decide to trade back? All could be off the board. Josh Allen 27 games,1 coach.J.Rosen 30 games with one Jim Mora till fired.S.Darnold 27 games,1 coach,2 full seasons.(he's 20 drinking cal's root beers, of all places in C-land).Tyrod & the quiet chatter leads me to...= #1 Mayfield.. the draft board position stock leads me to #4 Chubb/Ward/Fitz. but the sun will rise with 8 Dayes to go.. I'd be shocked if Gettleman or Dorsey trade out till Draft Day..just as.. Da Bears

Don't worry, the next time someone posts a trade rumor thread they will get merged together and it won't say "wacky" anymore.
