The biggest story of the Super Bowl week, at least the start, is someone who is not at all in the Super Bowl. And this is the interest for Myles Garrett, who made public a trade request on Monday because he does not believe that the Browns of Cleveland can face one of an sooner.
Who knows what a commercial package will look like; The Browns will probably not listen to any offer that does not include several first -round draft choices or just as good assets, and it would not be unprecedented for a player to ask for a job and end up registering an extension to stay Anyway.
For our needs here, we will simply look at the five most fun destinations that Garrett lands as a neutral observer. Also: the man himself said he wanted to “compete and win a super bowl”, so no, the teams without recent success were considered here.
Detroit lions
The Browns and the Lions did business for a rusher of passes during the last commercial deadline, with Za’darius Smith going to Detroit with a seventh -round recovery choice in 2026 for a fifth and 2026 in 2025. For however, hypothetical commercial discussions for Garrett and the Lions have obtained, the team adjustment and various deadlines are easy to recognize. Detroit is in his Super Bowl window, and associate Garrett with Aidan Hutchinson would solve the QB pressure problems which represent one of the rare holes remaining in the lions operation.
The Lions won 15 games this season, and although the two coordinators have taken coach jobs elsewhere, the organization recharged in key areas before during this current diet. It might be the best blow in the ring that Garrett is looking for.
Dallas Cowboys
Yes, cowboys are connected almost everything because of popularity. But really think of that for a second: Dallas’ new defensive coordinator, Matt Eberflus, Likes to look into a great variance and play quickly and explosive, in an eye to create turnover. This does not care that his units abandon the sites as long as they force the dishes to take away and do not give up points. Garrett plays 100 miles on time each snapshot, with expertise in forcing turnover. Oh, it’s true, he would also be twinned with Micah Parsons, one of his rare nominal passes that rush.
The money is not automatic – the cowboys are slightly superior to the salary ceiling at present and must still pay Parsons, and Garrett is due to just under 20 million dollars next season and 25 million dollars in 2026 – But it is negligible, and at some point in a wooden that the top is worth it, especially if Jerry Jones is really all.
Buffalo bills
Browns and Bills were recent business partners in the Amari Cooper agreement last season. Buffalo’s need is also clear as the day: a high -end and high -end talent to return possession to Josh Allen and Co. once or twice. The Bills are good in defense of the defense under the direction of head coach Sean McDermott, but Garrett could make them great and perhaps finally push them in front of the AFC chiefs.
Buffalo will probably separate this off -season from several players, and the fact that it is on the ceiling at the moment would not spread a potential prosecution anyway. Whatever the invoices lose depth were worth more than the penalty in the way Garrett could have an impact on their team as a whole.
Washington Commanders
Here is a pleasure that you would never have guessed this time last year. Although its broader impact on team consolidation is complex, the good legendary quarter of a recruit contract is nevertheless a precious chip in the NFL, and the commanders have exactly this in the alleged offensive recruit of the year Jayden Daniels. In addition, they already have a solid amount of talent around him, or at least enough that the defense repair should be their absolute priority.
Dan Quinn probably dreams of a rusher on board like Garrett in his defense, which emphasizes flexibility in the first seven (read: the ability to rush from different places again and again) and a blanket of the ‘heavy man. Stoping at the back is much easier when a (free) monster like Garrett chasing the quarters. Washington’s chronology as a competitor is in its emerging stadiums, and Garrett is only 29 years old despite his wear and tear. It would be fun.
Philadelphia Eagles
The rich could become richer, and it is not as if there were no straight points to connect here. Managing Director Howie Roseman filled the Eagles with solid recovery choices, but he is also not afraid of being aggressive in the trade against an established player. (AJ Brown and Darius Slay Jr. are recent successes.) Garrett is only that, and Philadelphia will have to reorganize his precipitation room of this off -season, whatever with several key players who rely on the free agency.
The teams cannot already move the ball to the Eagles. How would he be supposed to face a line that includes Garrett, Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis? Especially when it means restoring the ball to Saquon Barkley and this racing game that builds everything they do? If the Eagles are short again on Sunday, it may be time to fully engage in this pursuit.
