Myles Garrett, the Cleveland Browns’ star defensive end, has sent shockwaves through the NFL with a cryptic five-word statement regarding the possibility of joining the Green Bay Packers, instantly igniting a firestorm of debate and speculation among cheeseheads!
**Garrett Wants Out!**
Myles Garrett confirmed weeks of NFL rumors by publicly requesting a trade to join a Super Bowl contender.[1]. While the Browns front office has been adamant about not trading the Defensive Player of the Year, offers from around the league could change that[1].
**The Five Words Heard ‘Round Titletown**
While a move to Green Bay seemed a remote possibility, Garrett’s recent response to a question about potentially donning the green and gold has fans electrified. When asked if he would ever consider joining the Packers, Garrett responded, “Wouldn’t rule it out, it’s possible”[3].
**What Would It Cost?**
Acquiring Garrett won’t be cheap[3]. NFL insiders suggest the Browns would likely receive at least two quality picks in return – either two first-rounders, or a first-rounder and a high-level Day 2 pick package[1][3][5].
**A Limited Market?**
Garrett wants to play for a Super Bowl contender and is seeking a contract extension, which could condense the list of potential suitors[1][3]. He has leverage over which team lands him, as no team is likely to give up multiple premium picks for a two-year rental[1]. The average annual value of this contract could push toward $40 million per season[1].
**Other Contenders in the Mix**
Several teams are expected to reach out to the Browns, including the Detroit Lions and Buffalo Bills[1].
**Fan Frenzy: Is Garrett Worth the Price?**
Garrett’s five-word statement has ignited a frenzy among Packers fans, with social media buzzing about the potential trade. Some fans believe the Packers should do whatever it takes to land Garrett, while others question whether it’s wise to give up valuable draft picks for a player who will be 29 years old next season[1].
Whether it’s a realistic possibility or just wishful thinking, Garrett’s words have injected excitement into the NFL offseason and given Packers fans plenty to debate[3].
