Browns Make Deal with Giants for LB Oilvier Vernon

It’s not Odell Beckham Jr., but the Browns have made a deal with the New York Giants, swapping players ahead of next weeks start of free agency.

The move sends Browns OG Kevin Zeitler to the Giants for Pro Bowl LB Olivier Vernon.

The Browns will also receive a 4th round pick (132) and send the Giants a 5th rounder (155).

Vernon has 22 career sacks and will likely line up on the opposite side of Myles Garrett, giving the Browns two solid edge rushers.

The spot on the line for the Browns will go to 2018 second-round guard Austin Corbett.
