The Redskins 2020 draft class

[SunnySide]

The Buccaneers had discussions in February about trading Howard to Washington in exchange for left tackle Trent Williams, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

The teams obviously were unable to reach an agreement at the time, but Tampa Bay's recent acquisition of Rob Gronkowski could lead to reduced trade demands for Howard, who can be kept under team control through 2021 via the fifth-year option on his rookie contract. The Bucs face a May 4 deadline to decide on that option, assuming the 25-year-old tight end remains on their roster. A trade with Washington would still make sense, but it would be tougher for Tampa to absorb Williams' large contract now that Gronkowski accounts for a sizable portion of the cap space that was remaining after the team signed quarterback Tom Brady. The Bucs might prefer compensation in the form of draft picks.

So Bucs get a 3rd round comp (most likely) if they keep him on a team friendly deal and then let him walk (after 2020 or 2021)

So why would the Bucs take anything less than a 3rd?

Has OJ made some noise? thretened to hold out? Anything to make moving him a team need?

Would OJ play with us without an extension?


Im intrigued. I dont want to give up a 2nd rounder though.
