“This is something I know. This is not a rumor. This is something I found out about not too long after the 2018 NFL Draft from some people close to the situation. And then had it confirmed on the other side by the other team involved in it. There was talks a little bit between Cleveland and Seattle and Cleveland giving that first pick in the draft for Russell Wilson. I don’t know who struck up the conversation. I would imagine it was Seattle. It makes sense, I don’t know how serious it ever got, but I do know that was a very real conversation.”
.@CSimmsQB doubled down on his report that the #Seahawks were actively looking to trade franchise QB @DangeRussWilson to the #Browns for the 1st overall pick of the 2018 Draft.
Simms added that the #Seahawks likely were going to draft now-#Bills QB Josh Allen to replace Wilson. pic.twitter.com/4yILcMkpxy

This would have flipped the NFL on its head had this trade gone down. Who would have drafted Baker Mayfield if the trade went down?
