Los Angeles Rams trade for Myles Garrett, seen as top offseason move
Summary

The Los Angeles Rams have completed a significant trade for Myles Garrett, sending edge-rusher Jared Verse along with draft picks to the Cleveland Browns. This deal has been highlighted as the best move of the 2026 NFL offseason by Bleacher Report’s Moe Moton, who emphasizes Garrett's caliber at the peak of his career. The Rams, led by reigning league MVP Matthew Stafford and a top-ranked offense, are positioned as Super Bowl favorites following this trade. This addition is expected to bolster their already strong defense, which ranked 10th in points allowed last season. Amid speculation, all-time great Aaron Donald may be reconsidering his retirement after the acquisition of Garrett.
