REPORT: Browns star DE Myles Garrett requests a trade, could the Raiders try to pair him with superstar DE Maxx Crosby?
Browns star DE Myles Garrett officially requested a trade this morning, and I just have to throw it out there, the Raiders defense is already solid. But could you imagine Crosby coming off one side and Garrett coming off the other? That would be a quarterbacks nightmare, and it would quickly become one of the scariest units in the NFL.
The Browns have quickly announced that for now, they’re not taking any calls and have no plans to trade him. But we all know that won’t be the case for long. Garrett had 14 sacks last season, and at the age of 29 he is ready to go play meaningful football. Garrett has 102.5 sacks in eight seasons, and his only year with less than ten was eight years ago during his rookie season when he had seven.
NFL insider Dianna Russini said that an NFL GM texted her and said “The Raiders should consider trading for Myles Garrett to pair him with Maxx Crosby”. And I couldn’t agree more. That would be a massive upgrade and would instantly make this defense respected and feared, if it wasn’t already.
