Cleveland Browns Trade Deadline Story, Part 2 -- Terry Pluto (video)

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- This is Part 2 of my video series on the Cleveland Browns at the trade deadline.

Part 1 dealt with Jimmy Garoppolo being traded from the New England Patriots to the San Francisco 49ers. For whatever reason, the Browns missed a chance to acquire a player who I believe will become a viable NFL starting quarterback.

The price?

New England received a second-round pick in 2018 from the 49ers.

That's very reasonable, and something the Browns should have been able to beat.

Next, the Browns turned to A.J. McCarron, the backup quarterback with the Cincinnati Bengals.
