The NFL announced Wednesday that two teams submitted proposed resolutions ahead of the annual league meeting, scheduled for March 29 to April 1.
The Cleveland Browns proposed allowing teams to trade draft selections up to five seasons in the future, expanding the current limit from three years.
The Browns say that extending the trade window on draft picks will provide greater roster-building flexibility, per a copy of the proposal obtained by the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Cleveland also believes the rule change will encourage a more active trade market and promote creative trade structures that reflect the value of both the draft picks and players.
