Myles Garret traded to LA Rams

[SdBacker80]

I would have liked a 1st round in 28 or 29. 

I could see the Rams being average in those years.

What a terrible trade. This trade in my opinion does little to help you acquire a QB in the next draft. I would like to know why they felt they must trade him now after just resigning him.

we need to hope that the Jets, Cardinals, Dolphins and maybe a few others don’t land the top pick.  
 

Let’s say it’s the Raiders…it is the Jets and Browns maneuvering and trading up picking their guy assuming one is better than the rest.  
 

This trade doesn’t guarantee us much in regard to the QB spot

Berry got fleeced imo.

Generational player nets you one first rounder, a player, and a couple extra picks? I get that Verse is pretty good but I expected more.

Time will tell.

Wow, end of an era but this may be our Hirschel Walker trade that turns the franchise around.

Good way to look at it. The Browns are way overdue for some good fortune.

If the bid was two 1st round picks, then Verse is that 2nd first rounder.     So think of it like that.  The Brownies really did get 2 first round picks on top of the 2nd & 3rd.

[SdBacker80]

Verse appears to be very good against the run.  Little bit raw on the pass rush side.  
 

We will need to scheme up pressure a bit more.

I’m shocked.

Jared Verse has expressed visible displeasure regarding the blockbuster trade that sent him from the Los Angeles Rams to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for reigning Defensive Player of the Year, Myles Garrett.

Looks like he was born in Dayton for what it is worth.  He will constantly be measured up in this trade (unfairly to an extent)

Unbelievable.

Verse is pretty good but I feel like this trade is Verse and #2 or #3 QB prospect in the 2027 NFL draft.  Do we all think that is enough 

They might be picking first next year. The tank-a-thon is in full effect now

The defense is definitely worse now. I think the effect on the defense is going to be huge. Can't rely just on front 4 getting home, more blitzing, more reliance on DBs. Verse didn't even have double digit sacks last year. Myles had more sacks 2 games than Verse had all year. And that first picks is definitely going to be towards bottom of first round, I don't see how that pick helps move he needle to move up in draft. We gotta hope for the Rams to implode.

[SdBacker80]

Verse has some boom potential.  He played some WR in college - in many ways he’s still learning the position and is by some of accounts one of the best run defender edges in all of football. 

[nickers]

I just don't think the compensation matches the talent (Garrett).. I think Berry got hosed... Verse is a nice player but we should've got 2 firsts instead of one...

[Ibleedbrown]

I guess the compensation sounds fair. The Browns sold high, which is what you’re supposed to do if you’re going to trade a player. It’s basically 2 firsts, a 2nd and a 3rd. 

I’m not terribly versed on Verse, and like many of you l suspect the Rams’ 2027 pick will be a lower pick, but l’m guessing the Browns were doing this regardless and that’s probably the best offer they got. 

So long Myles, and thanks for the memories.

@gator said:

Better be multiple first round picks.

The reality is Verse is probably worth a 1st rounder plus, so we are getting 3 first rounders of value by the time all is said a done..

I agree.  We have to remember that Myles was vocal about wanting out.

Yeah but then he signed an extension. There is stuff we dont know that we need to know.

My understanding is that he was pissed that Schwartz left.

2024 Defensive Rookie of the Year, Verse was #53 of the top 100 players going into 2025 according to NFL.com. Close by at #55 was Detroit's DE Aiden Hutchison and SF's DE Nick Bosa at #57. That's pretty damn good company with a lot of upside for years to come IMO. Throw in the others and the deal was a good one for the future.
