Detroit sports personality Mike Valenti is making a bold statement: the Lions need to make a move for Myles Garrett if they want to be serious Super Bowl contenders. Valenti emphasizes that the cost of acquiring Garrett, despite being high, is worth it for a team looking to take the next step.
“The teams are already lining up… If the Detroit Lions don’t get in on this, someone you’re going to face on your way to the Super Bowl next year will,” Valenti said.
With the Lions in a win-now window, Valenti believes that adding Garrett to the defensive line, alongside Aidan Hutchinson, would be a game-changer. However, it remains to be seen if general manager Brad Holmes will deviate from his usual draft-and-develop approach to make a big splash in the trade market.
