The third and final draft asset included is Chicago\u2019s first-round pick in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Bears figure to have a three-year window before they hope to extend quarterback Caleb Williams and other draft picks, so why not strike now?\u201d Fishbain wrote. \u201cGarrett\u2019s addition would rid them of any need to land an edge rusher. Paired with Montez Sweat, it would be one of the best defensive end duos in the game for new coordinator Dennis Allen.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Myles Garrett Trade to Bears Would Fill Browns\u2019 Draft Coffers for Coming Roster Rebuild<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_5269145\">\n<div>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Myles-Garrett-e1738605312556.jpg?quality=65&amp;strip=all&amp;w=782\" alt=\"Browns Trade Bid Flips Myles Garrett to NFC for Godfather Draft Package\" width=\"782\" height=\"442\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5269145\" data-lazy-load=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-5269145\">GettyCleveland Browns edge rusher Myles Garrett.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Cleveland has as much reason to do this particular trade as Chicago, given that a full-blown rebuild is probably the best hand the Browns can play with the cards they\u2019re holding.<\/p>\n<p>The Browns own the Nos. 2 and 33 overall picks already. Trading Garrett to the Bears would add Nos. 10 and 41 to that mix.<\/p>\n<p>Cleveland punted on three first-round picks and three mid-round selections when it traded for quarterback Deshaun Watson, who has two years remaining on his $230 million contract and has torn the same Achilles tendon twice since mid-October. That lost draft capital equates to six players selected inside, or very near, the top 100 across three drafts \u2014 all of whom would still be on the Browns\u2019 roster playing on inexpensive contracts.<\/p>\n<p>The Browns spent huge in free agency and on extensions over the past few years to try and buy their way into contention, and the closest they got was a No. 5 seed two years ago before the Houston Texans throttled them in the opening round.<\/p>\n<p>Stockpiling picks is the antithesis of Cleveland\u2019s failed philosophy and also happens to be what usually works with regards to NFL rebuilds.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Browns Can Make Enough Moves to Dominate NFL Drafts in 2025, 2026<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_4665002\">\n<div>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/GettyImages-1776756370-e1705143749994.jpg?quality=65&amp;strip=all&amp;w=782\" alt=\"Browns Trade Bid Flips Myles Garrett to NFC for Godfather Draft Package\" width=\"782\" height=\"440\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4665002\" data-lazy-load=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-4665002\">GettyCornerback Denzel Ward of the Cleveland Browns.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>To that end, the Browns could also get off of money and bring back yet another first-round draft pick by dealing three-time Pro Bowl cornerback Denzel Ward.<\/p>\n<p>Other NFC North squads \u2014 namely the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers, who are both on the edge of title contention \u2014 are in serious need of playmakers in the secondary. Ward has a history of concussions and still has three years remaining on his $100.5 million contract.<\/p>\n<p>By flipping Garrett and Ward to a division\/conference that minimizes how badly they can hurt the Browns in the future, Cleveland can shed salary and amass five picks in the top 41 of this year\u2019s draft, as well as a second first-rounder to go along with their own in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The Browns could do even more stockpiling by trading off the No. 2 selection to a team that wants to move up for a young QB \u2014 perhaps the New York Giants at No. 3 or the Las Vegas Raiders at No. 6 \u2014 and get another early second-rounder in 2025 or a third first-rounder in 2026 in the process.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cleveland Browns can reset the future of the franchise by trading star defensive end Myles Garrett to the Chicago Bears.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12816,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12815","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cleveland-browns"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>HOT NEWS!!
