I genuinely wonder what team could even make a trade for Garrett.

Because it's more than just giving up the picks, as if you give up multiple 1sts for him, you HAVE to sign him to an extension to make sure you're keeping him around for years.  And if you have to give him the extension right away, that also means you need a lot of cap room this offseason.

How many teams are a pass rusher away from being a SB contender, have the picks, and have the cap room?

 I think the first Mack package is a ballpark- 1st and 3rd.....I feel that's too light. tho

He's got 2 years left and what 29(?), but he's a peppers-like alien, so that age doesn't equal "old". Plus best I know, he's been healthy and no big injuries. The worst thing on the resume was the fake n-word and helmet swing on helmentless player. 

I mean if I was a GM that was very comfy with my roster, Id almost trade too much for him along with giving him new mega deal. If I was 85% sure my team could make the playoff the next two years, I would trade two 1st and maybe even mid-rounder/mid player for him. 

He's a difference maker. He's a big nerd, no off-field BS like many others. I'd try for less, but Id give up kings haul for him.

I'm not saying he isn't worth trading for, but if he only wants to go to a contender, you then have to have a contender who has the cap space to give him a new deal (as if you give up multiple 1sts for him and don't sign him to an extension immediately, then you're beyond dumb).

I was more genuinely asking the question, as I didn't feel like looking up potential cap space amongst contenders.

I'm sure there are probably a dozen or so teams that would GLADLY give up multiple firsts and give him a monster extension, but they might not be the teams he's thinking can contend in 2025 by adding him and using up their cap space and draft picks to do so.

This is one of the few players at a critical position that it is worth paying a king's ransom.  I actually think the Panthers will be considered a playoff contender next year, but not a Super Bowl contender.  I doubt this happens, but it would be an amazing pick up.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
