NFL Trade Verdict
Cleveland Browns Win
Cleveland acquired Brock Osweiler, 2017 6th round pick and 2018 2nd round pick (35th overall, Nick Chubb) from Houston Texans for 2017 4th round pick (142nd overall, Carlos Watkins). Strict hindsight makes this one of Cleveland's best modern trades. Houston paid Cleveland to take Osweiler's contract, and the second-rounder became Nick Chubb, a four-time Pro Bowl running back. Houston received only a rotational lineman.
