It feels like there's a bit more of a gap between Garrett and Verse than Stafford/Goff. Maybe that's just me.

Welp if your names Jared you better hope the rams don’t draft you
Well, maybe born there, but he went to HS in Bloomsburg PA, which is in the eastern part of PA, north of Allentown. So I don't think he grew up a Browns fan.
Garrett's contract is much better than this cap number. Remember, the trading team takes the hit on the prorated signing bonus. Per OTC, that's approx $15 mil this year.
His Rams 2026 salary should be $8.34 mil.
Like others have said. As good as V8 is…. and he’s pretty dang good, he’s not even close to what Myles is. Verse is a one trick pony, power. Myles has it all. I personally love that my Rams are always striving for a ring. Many years in the mid 2000s we were slop garbage bottom feeders. It hasn’t been that for a decade now. In Les and McVay I trust without hesitation (as always). Best GM/HC combo in the league for a hot minute.
Or they made that pick because they really liked the kid and now that freed up those assets to make sn all on mine. Snead eluded to that after the draft, that they have options now with moving future picks.
This is exactly how I felt when we traded Goff away. I think it is a very similar trade. Garrett is going to put this team over the top. Our D needed this. SB baby!!
Que all the, "This shows that McVay will retire and not stick around after Stafford leaves since they traded all those picks." ... nonsense

The Immaculate Exception
I am late to the party and posted a similar thing before I got this far. But you are right on. and it will have a similar result!
Of course they love the kid, not needing QB next year freed up additional assets to get Garrett
Only if you purchased it within 90 days of the trade. I bought mine in December, so I'm SOL.
Well for me, working with a guy that never shuts up would drive me nuts, so I say that is the reason. That and he is a one move player.
I like Rams
Hall of Fame
I get what youre saying, its just a difference of how we are viewing each player. Myles had a great year last season. Set a record. In fact he almost doubled his average in sacks for his entire career. How does a 9 yr player do that? Well a good majority of his sacks came within his conference which delt with Burrow and Lamar playing injured and a 43 yr old qb. He also had 5 against NE who everyone was saying all season their OL was dogshit. Im in no way undermining Garrett's achievements, bc theres a reason 23 sacks is a record. But the jump he made from the previous season to last has to have an explanation due to how extreme the jump was. So I dont expect that to be the new norm for Myle's going forward. Just like I dont think Verse's sophomore season is going to predict his 3rd season. He has too little of a body of work to really work with.
I do agree with you on the comparisons of play style between the two players. And I would honestly rather have Garrett's style of play than Verse. And I will correct myself when saying that Verse "may be just as good". I didnt mean elite, but in talks of being one of the top DE's in the game in a few years.
Ill also put it out there that Garrett rubbed me the wrong way when he was talking shit about leaving Cleveland, no matter how much they offered. Well he was full of shit and took the money. So I also have a little bias. Lol
That is a pretty steep price. Yeah, they're better at the position with Garrett. This year. But Garrett is 30 compared to Verse at 25. How many more premium years does he have? A first next year. A second and third the following year. I know they've been pretty good with the day 3 picks.
I'm a little apprehensive about it though. What if Verse reaches his full potential by the time he's 28 and becomes a premier pass rusher? While Garrett is slowing down and possibly just a situational pass rusher at 33?
I'm gonna enjoy it this year. But there is pressure for Superbowl or bust. If they win it then it was worth it. They gave up a lot for Stafford and it was worth it. Hopefully this is worth it.
