I use the word ideally because in reality, the Redskins took this as far as they could before getting the deal done, and then paid market value.
So, they paid market value for a NFL starting ILB (who would be an immediate starter on at least 8-10 other teams), and, in doing so, retained a player who they drafted & developed, showed growth in their system and will be only 26 when the season starts.

Yup. I can see why you wouldn't call that a "good move".
