Could, should the Raiders trade for Myles Garrett?
There is a major storyline to watch in the NFL this offseason as Cleveland Browns superstar defensive end Myles Garrett has announced he has requested to be traded.
Garrett is looking to go to a team that has a better chance of sustained winning.
Garrett, 29, is a special talent who will interest all other 31 NFL teams. Yes, surely, the Lass Vegas Raiders, will likely, at least, thinking about the notion of figuring out what it would taker to get Garrett in the Silver and Black.
Apparently, the idea has some traction around the league.

Of course, whatever team trades for Garrett, if Cleveland gives in and deals him, will have to give up a lot to get him. He could cost multiple first-round picks or in that range.
The Raiders have a lot of other needs and starting a draft with the No. 6 pick and other premium resources, could be counterproductive for a teeam with holes to fill. On the other hand, new Raiders coach Pete Carroll said the team is in win-now mode and paring superstar pass-rushers Garrett and Maxx Crosby would be a nice way to fight in the quarterback-strong AFC West.
