Myles Garrett has finished with 16 sacks in each of the last two seasons despite a defensive coordinator who could not scheme him away from a league-high double-team rate and despite lackluster talent around him on the defensive line. Now, the Cleveland Browns have hired Jim Schwartz as their new defensive coordinator and have added three new and established names to their defensive line. And ESPN’s Mina Kimes is ready to drink the Kool-Aid with us.
On her podcast, Kimes broke down the new defensive line of the Browns and is all the way on board for Garrett to take another leap with the additions of Za’Darius Smith, Dalvin Tomlinson, and Ogbo Okoronkwo.
Here is what Kimes had to say:
Last year, Garrett was the only Browns edge rusher who ranked in the top 50 in pass rush win rate (he was 3rd overall).
New Cleveland DL Ogbo Okoronkwo and Za'Darius Smith ranked 13th and 34th, respectively.
