Fowler elaborates that sources he's spoken to agree Garrett should be worth at least two quality draft picks including at least one first-round pick in any potential trade. The 29-year-old game-wrecker released a statement earlier this week that his motivation for a trade is to contend for a title, not secure a new contract. At the same time, the market for pass rushers figures to be quite lucrative, which would likely help him secure a new deal as part of any negotiation. Fowler adds that Micah Parsons is poised to eclipse Nick Bosa's $34 million per-year on his upcoming extension while T.J. Watt, Trey Hendrickson, Danielle Hunter and Maxx Crosby are all set to hit free agency in the coming years. Fowler says the expectation is that Hendrickson and Crosby will garner strong trade interest if their teams decide to entertain offers. The Raiders seem set to rebuild with Tom Brady running the show now and the Bengals are in a precarious financial situation with none of Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins or Hendrickson locked up long-term yet. There could be a race to get some of these extensions done as the contracts will only get more expensive for teams that wait.
