We love winners and losers, right?
So who "won" the Myles Garrett trade?
For those who might have missed the news, the Rams and the Browns have agreed to a deal.
Rams receive: Myles GarrettBrowns receive: Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick, a 2028 2nd and a 2029 3rd.

That condition? If the Rams were to trade Garrett back to the AFC North, then that 2029 third-round pick would become a 2029 first-round pick.
Fans also believe that there is another winner in the deal.
Garrett himself.



What may ultimately determine who won this trade are these two questions: First, can the Rams deliver on the potential that Garrett adds to their defense? And second, what do the Browns do with this draft capital?
But those are questions to be answered on another day.
