Williams has made the last 7 Pro Bowls. At 31, would make a great veteran backup, assuming WAS takes on some of his salary in a swap. Willams has $11M and $12M in last two years of his deal there.
WAS would get a young high ceiling Safety, and we would get an older, proven veteran OT. Both have two years remaining on their deals. hmmm...
You weren't being serious, were you?
Yes. It would turn out to be a salary dump for them, trading a 31 year old player drafted in 2010 for a former 2nd Round pick from 2017 in Josh Jones. There is value there for WAS, as opposed to an outright release, which he has also requested. It happens. You don't see that as a possibility? That's OK. Could be another conditional pick. Just found it interesting both teams have players requesting trades, and both teams have needs at those very same positions.
The Redskins really do need another Safety, and the Packers really need to protect Aaron Rodgers. Do you think Bulaga will stay healthy all season?
