The Myles Garrett trade request from a year ago was seemingly off the table. Myles and Cleveland inked a brand new contract extension, a record amount of cash at the time. Good for everyone.
But the Rams waited, knowing the Browns were, are, and will be dogshit.
Les Snead may be my favorite GM in sports. For some teams, first-round picks are an opportunity to draft future All-Star talent. But, they’re always a roll of the dice. You know how you ensure your first-round pick becomes an All-Pro? Trade that pick for an All-Pro.
This is an A+ trade. Whenever you ball club acquires arguably the best player in the National Football League not named Patrick Mahomes, your ball club gets an A+.
Myles Garrett set the single season sack record. LAST YEAR. Now he’s on the Los Angeles Rams.
The Green Bay Packers were crowned champions for acquiring Micah Parsons last season.
Myles Garrett joins 2-time All-Pro CB Trent McDuffie on a newly-armed Rams defense.
The Rams are actually now the favorites to win the Super Bowl.
Browns Grade: A
If a team is willing to give you a cheap, inexpensive All-Star for your aging, expensive All-Star then everything’s going fine. You just had a good, fun day at work. After many, many bad, annoying days in Cleveland.
This is a brilliant deal for Cleveland.
Myles Garrett broke the single-season sack record in 2025.
The Browns won 5 games.
Garrett’s contributions didn’t matter.
Jared Verse is 5 years younger than Myles Garrett, his age most closely aligning with the state of Cleveland’s rebuild, seemingly, one more year away from acquiring their next franchise QB.
Plus, Verse was born in Dayton. His peoples are from over there somewhere. This is a homecoming, sort of.
