Last week, the NFL world was shaken to its core as the Cleveland Browns traded away Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams. This was one of the biggest blockbuster trades in league history, and it kind of came out of nowhere.
This got the folks at Bleacher Report thinking: What other blockbuster trades would be similar to the Garrett trade?
In the article, Alex Kay listed wide receiver Justin Jefferson as being traded to the Buffalo Bills in exchange for 2027 first-, second-, and fourth-round picks, 2028 third- and fifth-round picks.
Five picks in total for Jefferson? Not bad. Only one first-round pick and one second-round pick? Laughable. While I do not see a scenario in which the Vikings trade Jefferson unless he demands one, this kind of return should warrant Brandon Beane's phone number getting blocked. Jefferson is the top wide receiver in the league, and the idea that he is worth just a first-round pick, when Garrett got a first plus a top EDGE rusher, is comical at best.
I guess that's why it's a hypothetical trade.
