What is the story about?
This
week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans if the team should’ve traded for Myles Garrett.
The majority said no.

Jags are building and continuing to be a force. A team that’s on the verge of being a SB favorite makes this move. Keep building, follow the process and then we will have our chance to strike. Not worth giving up the world quite yet

I find the trade pretty underwhelming for the Browns. Some combination of thinking Verse is great (I live in SoCal and at the end of last season it seemed every Rams fan was complaining how overrated he is) and the odds of a serious Stafford injury this year play a big factor. But a late 1st one year from now, a late 2nd two years from now and 3rd in 3 years is a laughable return. Like Verse better be GREAT and/or that 1st has to end up in the top 10.

I think if this situation happened in two years, assuming Lawrence continues ascending, then you consider making a big swing. Lawrence is the question though. If we get 2nd half of the season Lawrence, there is no reason we can’t be contenders. I think he will, but it’s best not to f**k them picks yet.

You cannot build a winner by trading first round draft picks, continuously. yes, Garret is generational and will still have years of gas in his tank and ample room to disrupt offenses. He would have been great for the JAGS, but they are in cap stress and need to weed out dead wood this season and high salary cap casualties. He would have not let Josh Allen win last year’s playoff game but that’s wishful, stilted dreaming
In hindsight (which we all have and are masters of), it would have been better to pass on Travis last year and load up for Garrett this year. Except who knew and has a crystal ball.
I still think the interior defensive line is lacking in strength and another disrupter.
I think Armstead’s best days are behind and the rest are, “meh”. Adequate but not great or defining.
