“My favorite destination (for Miles Garrett) would be Detroit,”….. “They’re in a spot now where they don’t need their first-round pick.” NFL insider excited by the prospect of Lions landing $125 million star

NFL insider Albert Breer discussed the situation on the Dan Patrick Show, expressing his excitement about the possibility of Garrett joining the Lions. “Detroit would be my favorite landing spot for Garrett,” Breer stated. “The team is in a position where they don’t necessarily need their first-round pick.”

Breer elaborated that Detroit’s roster is strong enough that only a few rookies are likely to make the team, so trading some picks could be beneficial. He added, “The thought of Myles Garrett opposite Aidan Hutchinson is extremely appealing. Detroit is in a championship window right now.”

Garrett had an impressive 2024 season with 14 sacks and a career-high 22 tackles for loss. Throughout his career, he has consistently posted double-digit sacks in seven out of eight seasons and has earned four first-team All-Pro selections along with six Pro Bowl nods.

A player like Garrett is a rare find, and as Breer noted, the Lions are in a prime position to contend. Although acquiring Garrett would be a challenge, his addition would certainly position the Lions as Super Bowl contenders in 2025.
