William Jackson III reportedly wants trade, Washington Commanders will oblige: 3 possible landing spots

Washington Commanders’ cornerback William Jackson III has reportedly asked to be traded, and the team is expected to oblige that

Don't know anything about this guy, just he was drafted in Round 1. I'm sure Grier is doing his due diligence. Would be nice to have another capable corner while we wait on Byron Jones. Cut Noah or hell put him in the trade for Jackson too lol. Article states likely landing spots are Ravens, Raiders and Chiefs. Wonder what it take to make such a trade?

He's a decent press man corner, and we desperately need press man corners in order to play cover 0. His contract isn't bad, and I think we could probably get him for a 6 or 7, given that he's 30. I'd do it, even if I knew Byron was coming back healthy soon. Never know when Byron or X will go down again, and we can't survive playing soft zone long term.

I have a feeling Jones probably won't come back this season. Give them Noah, and late pick for Jackson. Might even be able to trade Cedric Wilson for something maybe in another move.

I would say no. Our cap situation right now is ok, but we're one more large contract away from being in a concerning position. Some people talk about offloading Byron Jones in the offseason, but his contract doesn't really allow that. We have to remember that if Tua works out, he's going to cost 35 million-ish very soon.

Actually if we were to cut Jones post June the dead money hit is 4.751mill but the savings are over 14mill

Might have to pay to get someone to take Noah at this point. I have no idea if Byron is coming back or not, but I'm certainly approaching it like he isn't.

It's not really a large contract. His remaining salary is less than 5 million, and next year's isn't guaranteed. We could either keep him for like 9.5 next year, or ditch him if he doesn't play well enough to justify it. Might be good insurance either way in case we move on from one of our other guys.

yes, we are as desperate as ever. cheap salary this year, like 5mil and he could be released at season end without anything more

Need decent corners to get the defense back on track, could be a season saver for the defense at least. Knowing our luck with corners this season, Miami would trade for Jackson and then he gets hurt for the season within a couple weeks lol

How about Dishwater or Thompson if he plays well this week? Their guy stinks

I am a Tua Supporter but anyone willing to give him $35 mil a year is crazy.

He is too injury prone to dedicate that much money to him.
 
Considering X looks like JAG this this year I'd say do it!
