He says he wants to go to a contender. Does he have a veto on the trade? If so, no way he would be ok with the Bears.
Lions are good at one DE spot, so not set reallyI understand that.
No player says "I want to go to a team that was 5-12 last year." We all know that. They want to go to the Chiefs.
But when they say "I want to go to a winner", they don't take into account salary cap status of those "winners", whether the winner already is set at DE, etc. While Garrett would be an upgrade over most anyone, a team with good DEs is not trading for him.
How do you determine which teams are winners when there is turnover in the playoffs every year. KC and Philly can't fit his salary. Detroit, Minnesota? They're in good shape at DE. Tampa? Get serious.
I'm sure Jayden Daniels wanted to go to a winner, too. But here we are.
probably 20 teams that would be willing to top such a BS offerI think the GM was excessive when he thought it would take a first, two third and a player.
He's paid what you can buy the best DE in Free Agency for. He's 30.
We should dangle Taylor/Walker and a second.
I would need three Garretts for that price.Saw an article that tossed out this trade. I don't like it:
Chicago Bears trade: 2025 First-Round pick (No. 10 overall), 2025 Second-Round Pick (No. 41 overall), 2025 Fifth-Round Pick, CB Kyler Gordon
I mean, Jerry might just be dumb enough to

You’re talking the Ryan poles special!Lions have been pretty successful drafting their core players and not being overzealous in trades and free agency and it’s worked out for them
Got to hit on draft picks to get this team on track. Stop squandering picks on losers like claypool and veelus got to get some Ws. With the 10th if they want de there will be plenty available that will complement sweat. Trading for garet is short term plus another 100 mil contract plus costing multiple picks. Need to get real here
Poles has failed to do that for 3 years, so now you expect him to do it in oneI don't think so, there aren't 20 teams that can afford him AND are in a chip window.
He legitimizes an already good defense, we fix our o-line and this team is almost ready to rock.

Pretty much any team can afford him

Unless I'm confusing trade rules, the Browns would take on all the guaranteed money, which means he only has ~1.3m in salary for whatever team trades for him the next 2 years.
Why I expect his draft capital to be much higher than some people expect, because his contract would be a steal.
Also why I expect he'd also want an extension in place
Turns out the 1.3m number is wrong. I initially thought the same as you said here. However OTC incorrectly listed his current option bonus money which would go to his new team as signing bonus which stays with Cleveland. See posts #15 - #18 in this thread. So the new team would be paying ~20m per both years.Pretty much any team can afford him

No the strength is at DE in the 1st.The strength of this draft is at DT not end. The Bears have plenty of money to spend, I'd rather see them blow it on arguably the best pass rusher in the NFL over a really good right guard.

Teams Prepared To Trade First-Round Picks, More For Browns' Myles Garrett
Teams are prepared to offer the Browns at least one first-round pick and additional compensation for Myles Garrett. More at Pro Football Rumors.www.profootballrumors.com
This article breaks it down on what the acquiring team could do.
No the strength is at DE in the 1st.
Carter, Williams, Walker, Pierce, Green, Scourton, Stewart, Princely… DT is very strong too but after Graham in the top 10… most of the other DT’s are late 1sts to early 2nds. A quick google search shows the consensus of DE being the strongest position search on the defensive side of the ball.
Walker is more of a rush OLB, his pass rushing skills really developed this last year. I don’t think the Bears would be a good fit but can be a really good pas rusher in the NFL. He’ll just never be a 4-3 DEThat makes more sense
Not sure walkers really an edge at the next level, but boy is he good. Jack of all trades. When i went to watch banks tape I kept seeing a guy flashing in pass coverage/tackling and pass rush and dove deeper into him.
If we needed a linebacker I'd love him there. THATS an off ball lineabcker you take in the teens for all the stupid lions fans
Only way i'm doing it is if Montez Sweat is the main part of the package they get from us.
Sweat has a $33 million dead cap hit.The Browns aren't taking on any salary in a trade.
The Bears also aren't taking on another 25mil+ edge salary once Garrett is extended.
The only feasible way for this to work is for Poles to find a 3rd team to trade for Sweat.
I'm not sure what draft compensation they could net for Montez, late 2nd rounder?
There is all this worry about Garrett being 29 this year and getting old.
I wouldn't worry about that as he has been extremely durable over his career.
The Bears signed Peppers when he was 30 who was also very durable before coming here and he put up 90 sacks since he was 29.
They would also have the upper hand in any trade as they could offer the 10th pick.
Do I expect this to happen, no fricking way but it isn't an instant no if executed properly.
if they made a post 6/1 trade, there would be a dead cap for 4mil in 25' and 8' mil in 26' and 25' caps savings of 21mil.Sweat has a $33 million dead cap hit.
