    Certainly, not yet. The all-time sack leader, Bruce Smith, won how many rings for his teams? Zero...point...zero. 

  • I can celebrate now that it's official. A Cleveland Team FINALLY kept one of our own Draftees long term & he's well worth it! In a couple years, folks may look at the price as a bargain. Great signing of a fine player & person. He's the kind of young man I want my Grandchildren to look up to.

    The only reason I haven't yet purchased a Myles Garrett jersey is that I am one of those Fans who thought he would return home to Texas. His will be my next jersey.

    Good job by AB & Staff. Let's give credit to the Haslams as well....after all, they forked up the $$ to get this done.

  • Finally.... something worth a post! Well done, Andrew.... well done.

    MG sewn up opposite a restructured and "final-year" motivated Vernon? I think we have our 2020 bookends.

    Now if we can just manage a 2020 season...

  • Good for Myles hopefully he'll help us fuck up (within the rules) the Rapists for many years to come!

    And Llmar Lundy with Rosie Greer cleaning up the mess.....and who would call him Rosie ?  😕

  • I love the fact that the deal is 5 years AFTER his rookie deal. the 25/yr doesn't kick in until 2022. 7 more years of MG.

    Just a thought, but if MG is working as a 1099, his taxation is significantly different. I believe his "corporate" tax is only 20%. I could be wrong.

    I’d bet the rapist doesn’t have ‘many years’ left, but fuck up the Steelers, definitely.

    Ya see Mike you should have followed my advise that loyalty is everything to this guy. Proudly bought my primo "95" way back when. I knew he was a Brown forever unless

    they foolishly trade him down the line somewhere. I doubt it would be because he wants it either.

    Yeah Bill, you were right. I simply thought that his loyalty to A&M and Texas would take him back there, but he (obviously) has adopted Cleveland & the Browns. I was chosen as "Season Ticket Member of the Week" in Myles' rookie year of 2017 (vs Packers). I was given a Riddell Mini Helmet autographed by Myles. It is still in the case on display in the Man Cave. BTW, at the end of that game (won in OT by packers), Clay III removed his Packers' jersey. He wore his Dad's #57 Browns' jersey on under it.

    Great memories of Myles Garrett & more to come!

    My faith in him is directly related to the fact he committed to A&M early before he got rated as one o the top 2 HS players in the country. Then despite every major football

    power pressing him for visit and to drop his commitment, he never waivered while constantly saying he was an Aggie. I felt he was doing the same with the Browns as he

    talked about wanting to be the Defensive Player of the Year for the Browns.  He still talks about that goal as a part of leading the Browns back to greatness.

    I think it's great you got that Mini Helmet autographed by Myles. He's a quality person.

  • I'm late to the party, but this is great news. Few times you can extend a great player's contract for longer than 4 years, and now it seems like a lot, but as the salaries and the cap grows we might be getting a great deal. 

    Plus, I prefer negotiating Myles' contract earlier than Ward's and Baker's, who I think still have things to prove. Make sure you keep the better player the first.

    I thinks it’s Baker or Ward - and if one of them doesn’t develop the answer is easy.  If they both develop its Baker of course.

    add in a guy like Chubb who we all love but He’s probably going to get Franchised and then play his second contract elsewhere.

    Baker (fingers crossed) and Myles are your big contracts- that’s all the room you got

    Thus the term "contract extension"... 😉
