Trading for Johnny Manziel

[Slyone14]

So, im the Titans and im starting from the offseason in my cfm. and im hoping to make him my qb of the future. I need everyones input to see if this trade is FAIR.


QB Mettenburger
15 3rd Rd Pick
16 2nd round pick


for


Johnny Manziel


IS this trade fair? I honestly think the Browns would trade him. IF not what would be a fair trade? Thank you everyone

Id rather have Mariota

[Slyone14]

For sure!! But, hes not available yet. WIsh I could


So this is my next best thing. My other idea was


Mettenberger
WR wright'
15 3rd rounder




not sure

Is any trade fair in this game? I got Chandler Jones for 2 4th round picks, both players were cut by the Pats before week 1 of their rookie season. I have traded players who get cut the next week by a team even though they had a need for them. The overall logic is off in the game.

Now to answer the question you ask, I think the Browns might want some more value in real life. The first trade you purpose would be a unproven QB, a 3rd round and future 2nd round pick would not be enough in real life. In the game if they will take it then do it. After all it is just a game and your game so play how you want. Something tells me you might have issues with it since you created a thread asking advice.

Yeap! You are 100 percent correct. My football knowledge, is okay, and most people on here know more. I honestly, just want to do something that is fair. Also, id just really like to know what the Browns would want in exchange for him.


Im thinking a lot, but then again after the year he had in his few starts and how they don't by any shape of mind view him as the QB of the future, would mean not as much as say a Bortles or Bridgewater. BUUUUT, that's what you all are for!

I think the first offer is a fair trade. It's an unproven QB and draft picks for another unproven QB.

I use to play golf with a guy who worked in the Falcons front office year ago. He allowed to to pick his brain on how things work. He use to talk about how teams overvalue players until they see they are worthless then dump them for nothing.

I think the Browns would have a hard time moving Johnny now after his 2 games and a offseason of rehab. He would be toxic if he was not before. The Browns would still have a high tag because he cost them a 1st round pick. After next year I think they might take anything or dump him if he does not develop.

I think your first trade is fair value based on his cost for the Browns to get him, but in video game world I have seen him become a beast. I say do the first trade and enjoy your CFM.

It's funny, I also tried to trade for Manziel too. This was in year three of my Cfm.

I needed a backup qb, and the browns had him on the trade list.
Perfect situation, right?

I say TRIED to trade for him, as they wanted the MOON and more. I offered like a third round to start, rejected. So I got mad and offered a first round. Rejected!

Ok, I kinda got even more angry and offered TWO firsts....

Yeah, rejected. I just laughed and stopped there. Drafted another backup through a draft, third round.

Dunno what the browns were on about, but they can keep their guy
