So bubble out Paul Richardson on a RPO bubble screen - if the defense crashes to Saquon get it outside to Richardson and let him break it to the house. With Trent as athletic as he is, you could send him out to wipe out one of the DBs.
Or stack your WRs to the right, put Jordan Reed wide to the left by his lonesome, and send Saquon to the side with all the WRs. If the defense crashes to Saquon, throw an out to Reed and let him try to win the one-on-one and take one to the house.
I can picture it so clearly in my head that it's making me feel like he's already a Redskin. I need to splash some cold water on my face.

Yea totally. He is the missing piece who would improve every aspect of the offense and it would bleed over to assisting the D as well in time of possession.
My gut reaction is pretty much the same as yours.
When logic comes back into the thought process, my biggest concerns are the cost of the trade, it would probably be expensive and the short length of RB careers generally. High cost and short career don't add up to good value.
That being said, he is the unique talent that makes such a consideration necessary.
