The Buffalo Bills, Philadelphia Eagles, and Seattle Seahawks have all been identified as potential trade partners for Cleveland Browns star edge rusher Myles Garrett, who has been the subject of recent trade rumors. All three teams have a need for a top-tier pass rusher, and Garrett's availability could make him an attractive target.

Why it matters

Acquiring a player of Garrett's caliber could significantly bolster the pass-rushing capabilities of any of these teams, potentially elevating their defenses to an elite level. The Bills, Eagles, and Seahawks are all contenders looking to improve their rosters, and adding Garrett could be a game-changing move.

The details

The Bills had just 36 sacks as a team last season and could use Garrett to anchor their defensive line. The Eagles lost Jaelan Phillips in free agency and are unsure about Brandon Graham's future, leaving them in need of edge rushers. The Seahawks, despite having an elite defense, lack a dominant pass rusher after losing Boye Mafe in free agency.

  • The Browns recently revised Garrett's contract, making it easier to trade him if they choose to go that route.
  • NFL Network's Mike Garafolo has reported that the Browns currently have no interest in trading Garrett, but that could change if the team struggles in 2026.

What they’re saying

“The Bills had just 36 sacks as a team last year. Garrett could make a good defensive line one of the league's best.”

— Gary Davenport, Bleacher Report Writer

“The Eagles have quite a bit of young talent on the defensive front (again, Howie Roseman), but after Jaelan Phillips got a monster contract from the Carolina Panthers, the team lacks an anchor on the edge. Garrett would provide that anchor and then some.”

— Gary Davenport, Bleacher Report Writer

“A Garrett trade would be the ultimate all-in move from Seattle general manager John Schneider. In theory, the Seahawks have the cap space to make a trade happen—over $33 million. What they might not have is a player to include in the trade who would turn Cleveland's gears, so the team might have to up the draft capital involved by including say a Day 2 pick with two firsts.”

— Gary Davenport, Bleacher Report Writer

What’s next

If the Browns struggle in 2026, it's possible Garrett could demand a trade again, either by the trade deadline or in 2027. If that happens, the Bills, Eagles, and Seahawks would likely be among the teams calling to inquire about his availability.

The takeaway

Acquiring a player of Myles Garrett's caliber could be a game-changing move for any of these three teams, as they all have a need for a dominant pass rusher to anchor their defenses. While the Browns currently have no interest in trading Garrett, that could change if the team's fortunes take a turn for the worse in 2026.
