I Became GM Of The Browns On Madden And Instantly Traded Myles Garrett
On Gametime, I've been doing these GM streams where I take over a team and only act as the General Manager to try to win a title. I did this on NBA2K25 when I took over the 1990's Orlando Magic and the expansion 2025 New Hampshire Granite.
With the NFL season, I took on maybe the greatest challenge yet: take the Cleveland Browns to the Super Bowl. One look at that roster (which is the worst ranked in the game) and it was pretty clear that major changes needed to happen. Myles Garrett is a 99 ranked player so he was going to bring back the best trade package.
The one thing about these streams is it's not just me making the decisions. This is a group effort in sync with the chat. I know some people say ignore the chat, but they've been a huge reason we've won with the Magic and Granite. The chat is a major part of these streams.
Here's what we got back from the Cowboys for Garrett:
LG Tyler Smith
2026 1st
2026 3rd
2027 4th
2 7th Rd Picks
We also traded away David Njoku, Denzel Ward and are heading into the season with Dillon Gabriel as the starting QB for Week 1. With Deshaun Watson's contract on the books for the next two seasons, we are in full rebuild mode for that time. The plan is to stock up on picks and young talent. We've added some decent pieces already to the offensive line.
If you like team building and would like to help me build this team, jump on with us Today at 3 PM on Barstool Gametime. God knows with this team, I could use the help. The regular season starts today.
Here's yesterday's stream if you want to check out the pre-season and the return we got.
