Does anyone know if it's possible to trade a player for a RFA? I'm not sure but I think that's doable.

Also, cliffhanger posts on a message board? As said on ESPN, come on man. Either keep it to yourself or just post the rumor.

I'd do that without thinking twice. Rather pay Wallace than V Jax or Colston

"According to @ABC7News the Redskins hope to Finalize ANOTHER trade in the next day or so this is SEPARATE from the RG3 trade"
any idea what this is?

Oh boy

I really hope we don't trade rak

[Skinsfanatic]

If we trade Rak, do we sign Mario?

Lol and that ain't happening.. maybe trade rak for a WR or DB? Idk but I would miss him he's a big time player

The only way i'd be okay with parting ways with Rak is if we replaced him with Mario Williams. Not sure we'd be able to pull that off though.

My guess is the only thing they are trading Rak for is picks to recoup some of that lost in the RGIII trade. Just a guess though.

I'm just curious here but what kind of draft pick compensation do you think Orakpo would be worth? If i had to say i would think he would only fetch us maybe a late 1st or a second and in my opinion that wouldn't be enough to let him go. I'd be inclined to change my mind if there was another early pick next season though.

If you could get his replacement in FA and then pick up a extra 1st rounder by trading him. Yeah.

If we coul replace orakpo with a free agent, why wouldn't our trade partner just take that free agent instead of trading is anything for orakpo?

Maybe they lack the money a large-market team like us have and can't afford to get into a bidding war over that position.

Salary cap? Rak cheaper? Various of reasons why.
