JP seems to know something.

Redskins FO would be really stupid to trade Kerrigan or Williams

Agree...very dumb. Why? The holes of best team pass rusher and top 3 LT in the league are too big to close.

Norman and Reed trade makes more sense...

Not even the Redskins front office is that stupid.

It depends on the compensation. Both players are 30 and at their peak value. Their contracts are commiserate with their performance right now... but they'll be more expensive than they're worth in a couple years. And lets be honest - we're a couple years away from being competitive. I'd trade either of them for a 1st and not think twice about it.

Good point, I think this would make more sense for Kerrigan but not for Williams. Trading Kerrigan will leave a huge hole in defense although, we might be able to offset the loss by drafting a OLB (assuming we choose right player) or sign a FA.

I see absolutely no purpose in trading Williams - it is extremely difficult to find a LT who consistently play at top level. If we trade Williams, we should expect to see a huge drop off in offense efficacy due to Williams's athleticism, which is not ideal for Gruden at this point.

This needs to be in bold.
