NFL Draft Pick Trades: Browns' Proposal Rejected

On March 30, Cleveland Browns just pulled their proposal to stretch NFL draft pick trades

from three years out to five.

This was one of two team ideas headed to the owner's meetings this week in Phoenix, Arizona.

Leaguewide, it never gained traction.

Teams weren't feeling it, especially after some strong pushback early on.

Rams head coach Sean McVey flat out said there's zero chance at a pass.

He gave props to Browns GM Andrew Berry for the logic behind it, but made clear his squad

fresh off a Super Bowl run built on trading picks stays no.

On this, on a brighter note for change, the Pittsburgh Steelers got their tampering

tweak approved for a one year trial in 2025.

Now teams can directly call or video chat with up to five free agents during that window.

First time they ran it this spring.

Owners still got eight more proposals from the competition committee to chew on, five

road changes and three by-law shifts.

I stay glued as these talks wrap up.
