  8. It’s a win for the Lions because they have a clear upgrade at edge who can mentor the young room they have now. He should be able to benefit similarly from Hutch next season as well.

    It’s a win for Z because he has a chance to win a ring. AND benefiting from Hutch next season could improve his chances of securing one last deal.

  13. Would be great to get someone else, not a super high production/high cal person but just another option as a just incase or if there's any with development potential they see making a valuable weapon with the right direction

  14. The Browns are a lot of things stupid but they aren't that crazy to give up a stud like MG. He, Nick Chubb and the Chief Njoku are the heart and soul of the Browns. It's a death sentence to even think about trading them

  15. Garrett is great for Cleveland and not just for the franchise. But at what point is enough, enough? They believe that team is going to be good next year in that front office?! Cleveland is setting themselves up for one heck of a.fall, Saints-style or worse if they keep hanging onto all their players and get little to nothing back. Not a sole should WANT to trade Myles Garrett in CLE, but it's the correct move to make, soon. Next season is his 8th(!) NFL season. His market is franchise-altering right now. They wait two or three years, suck, and he gets hurt in any way bad enough, CLE won't get half of that. Same for the oft-injured Denzel Ward. But its the Browns, so…

  17. Giants would get a 3rd round comp pick if ojulari signs somewhere else. Giants won’t settle for anything less than that. Crap reporting to not even bring this up.

  18. My Lions have some of the best players in the NFL on the roster and healthy, they’re going to win the Super Bowl, and they’re gonna win another Super Bowl after that, and win another after that!

  20. Its 100% because we dont want to give up picks. If Brad Holmes continues drafting at the level he does, our window will never close unless we trade away all of our picks for expensive veterans.

    Dan Campbell has proven that he will get players to play their best regardless of success. Its honestly amazing how complementary and elite the top of our our front office has become.

  25. Solid move for reasonable comp, but let's not get giddy; ZS is past his best & got chances in CLE because of the attention that MG always got. He'll help stabilize things, but this isn't Von Miller to The Rams.

  27. Come on guys, you know better. There was NEVER a chance to get Myles. We don't pull those sort of deals, and when the way they draft, the picks are far better off in their hands.

  34. It's not just the loss of Hutchinson and Davenport. It's James Houston becoming an absolute slug. They needed a body on Edge. ZDS doesn't have to be great. I'll settle for good.
