While the Patriots did not acquire Garrett, his departure means they no longer face a marquee pass rusher in the conference. The trade is expected to reshape the pass-rush and set a new price for elite defensive talents. The Rams reportedly send a star edge rusher, Jared Verse, a first-round pick, and additional assets to Cleveland in this deal.
