#3:  Cleveland Browns acquire Jarvis Landry from Miami

The Miami Dolphins could be criticized for waiting too long to act on trading Jarvis Landry. By the time that decision was made, his contract situation made it to where the return they could hope for wasn’t customary to his obvious talent. They sent the 24-year old away for just 4th and 7th round picks in returns. Meanwhile, the Browns collected one of the best slot receivers in football.

Landry has been known for being a bit difficult to coach at times in the past but nobody can deny his productivity and work ethic. He’s a two-time Pro Bowler who scored a career-high nine touchdowns in 2017 and is good for 100 catches a season, many of them for first downs. He can be the best friend of a young quarterback like Baker Mayfield. Somebody to rely on.
