2020/2021 - The 55: Roster Talk & Team-Building Analysis

I’m not spending a day one or two pick on Trent Williams before the draft.

This is the best T class I can remember, gimme a young dude on a rookie deal.

Throw a 4th (ok, maybe our late 3rd) for Williams, sure, but he’s a stopgap who’s on the wrong side of 30 and injury prone.

And let's top things off with a little of this.

Yeah, I think a third is about the most I'd give up. But then again, I'm not so sure if I want two rookies starting at OT for us next year.

I think calling him a stopgap is underselling him. He's 31 and he's elite. We could definitely get 4 years out of him.. Still don't blame you for not wanting to trade a valuable pick for him. I'd trade a 3rd and 4th for him in a heartbeat though.

He’s been injury prone as well.

I see the upside and would understand the move, but I think it’s a gamble.

IMO I'd absolutely trade our 1st 3rd rounder for him, assuming that he can pass a physical. Or, I'd trade our 2nd for him in exchange for their 3rd.

1st: Wirfs/Thomas/Wills or one of the elite players that drops in Simmons, Okudah, Brown, trade back for a nice looking cache of picks (in that order)

2nd: Traded for Trent Williams

3rd: 

3rd:

3rd:

That's not a bad return or value.

LT: Williams

LG: Bitonio

C: Tretter

RG: Average level starter via free agency/the draft

RT: Wirfs/Thomas/Wills
