And last season, he had eight and a half sacks to pace the Miami Dolphins.

And they always say that first year back from the ACL isn't them back at their peak.

It's usually the second year coming off an injury such as that when you see the best of the player.

Now, he's young.

He's only 29.

He's heading into his age 30 season.

He's been a Bronco.

He's been a Dolphin.

He's got 48 career sacks.

Miles Garrett would cost you more than your arm and your leg.
