Roster Review: Front 7 Defense

Nobody is going to give up anything for Collins with his current contract.

Agreed. Washington fans need to stop with these unrealistic trade scenarios. I feel that right now the only players that other teams would absolutely trade for are Terry, Allen, Chase, Payne, and Sweat. I really don't see any other players with realistic trade values.

and even then I think fans would be shocked at what you might get back in draft value. If financially possible it makes the most sense to keep those pieces.

Would anyone likely trade for Collins though, given his contract and knowing he played better at LB last year than S? If he doesn't accept a permanent move to LB, I can't see how he stays or gets traded. Most likely a cut and swallow the dead money in that case. Hence a restructure might be better all round.Well, won't get anything in return, so instead of "trade him" maybe "include him in a trade" would be the best way to phrase it. Still unlikely, but if you can get rid of his contract, even if it costs you a late round pick, may be worth it.

Should Washington pay up for free agent LB De'Vondre Campbell?

I'd pass. He is going to get a fatty contract for 1 great season. And he will be 29.

I'd try to sign someone younger that can realistically be expected to play great for the life of a 4 or 5 year contract.

I'm OK spending kind of big this year. We're been thrifty recently to only limited success. Extend our own when we can, and I'd open up the wallet for Campbell. If we got a London Fletcher for 2-3 years, it's worth the cost IMO.

A middle Linebacker would “complete” the defense, it’s a big hole which affects so much. Getting a vet there to help Cole and Davis as well playing that middle drop to help the secondary, lotta value in paying someone to shore up the D.

Agreed. And it's not like MLB is the highest paid position on defense either... I would have zero issue with a big $ 1 to 2 years contract on a proven vet.
Many are available, go get one.

We can't keep underspending on our D's weakest link...
