I think it really comes down to how stubborn the Redskins are going to be with Williams. Him plainly stating that he won’t play for Washington destroys his trade value, which likely wasn’t that high to begin with given his injury history and age. Would the Redskins want an all pro player and insurance policy in exchange for their disgruntled left tackle? Or do they want a mid round draft pick? Although, I’m not sure I’d want to give up both players for Williams. I think I’d rather keep Reiff and give them Harris and a 5th.

The only thing I don't like about trading Harris is it just opens up another hole. Sure, Williams is an upgrade on Reiff, but Reiff is far from the biggest problem on the OL. So we still wouldn't have any answers at guard, and now we also need a starting safety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why not. William's hasn't played in over a year and they are getting two starters for one. I think we'd have to trade both in order to have the cap space to resign Williams to an extension. I don't think they make this trade for a 1 year rental. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d see this as a 1 to 2 year rental so in that regard, I’d rather part with players than draft picks.

I just don't see the point of the rental, on top of that you'll have to give him a new deal. I agree definitely should not give up any picks that would be terrible. I'm not sure trading for Williams would make this team better. You'd have to trade both Reiff and Harris cause of cap space. It'd upgrade the LT but create another whole in the secondary which we are already thin at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said so less than 5 minutes later. All he said is he liked to post quotes that provided guidance for life. That's it. It had nothing to do with a trade, nothing to do with him moving anywhere at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelKing728 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 The only free agent visit I'm seeing for us is Tyler Shatley. Anyone else we are interested in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your source is old. No visits are taking place and Shatley re-signed with Jacksonville. He visited the Vikings last offseason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Agree. There aren't any visits happening at all anywhere, except potentially via video-conference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
