I think if we can replicate the Bears/Giants 2021 trade, that would make it significantly easier to trade for Garrett. If I remember correctly, the giants got a a 2021 5th and 2022 1st. If we can trade down and get a 2026 1st, we'd virtually be trading just one 1st. And if the Browns say we need to add a couple later picks to make up for trading back, i'd be completely fine with throwing in an extra 4th round pick or two. When trading for a HOF DE like Garrett, those later picks become virtually inconsequential. Obviously there would need to be some conditions met before pulling off a trade like that, specifically rebuilding the OL. But doing those three things, put us in a great position to win, I think.
Step 1: Spend 50m on the OL
Step 2: Trade back and add an extra 1st (giving us 2 in 2026)
Step 3: Trade 2025 1st and 2026 1st Garrett
