I would like to see Downs have a good camp and make the team. He could be a good inside backer for us, and I think he is more athletic than our alternatives there.

Trent Williams being traded. The Athletic's Jeff Howe reports the Redskins are "having trade discussions" regarding holdout LT Trent Williams. Howe notes the Patriots are expected to be in the mix if Williams is made available. Williams has stated he will not play again for the Redskins, so Washington may now be willing to deal the 31-year-old after signing OT Donald Penn. Health has always been Williams' biggest obstacle, but when on the field he's truly an elite left tackle. There would be plenty of suitors. Williams is under contract the next two seasons at base salaries of $11 million and $12.5 million. Related: New England Patriots Source: Jeff Howe on Twitter Jul 31, 2019, 12:53 PM ET I think the Vikings are a perfect fit to trade for him. They can send Reiff to replace him along with Treadwell for Salary match and perhaps a 2nd round pick.

Right now they have Williams and Penn. They make the trade they have Reiff and Penn.

Williams is extremely good but the guy hasn't played 16 games in a season since 2013.

But he won't have any trouble beating out Flowers.

A journeyman like Aldrick Robinson came in and immediately contributed... that tells you how bad we need another receiving option.

"and may you Jordan Taylor wake up to a carbuncle festering on your big toe ... and may you Bisi Johnson ..." All just to be right (lucky as hell) about Mitchell.

I don't even know what a carbuncle is, but I suppose it's unpleasant. I hope they are all great, but yes I would particularly like to see Mitchell be great. I do like being right. Not looking good on my prediction so far, but it's early.

We need a guy capable of playing 19 games Or maybe even 20.

I'm getting kind of bored with practice reports and want to see real games. https://www.dailynorseman.com/2019/7/31/20749637/minnesota-vikings-training-camp-july-31-day-5-recap

I don't have an opinion about him or your proposed trade. Williams is very athletic (more so than Reiff by a long shot) so I would guess he would certainly fit the mold of the type of lineman we seem to be converting too. Not sure what blocking scheme the Skins run though so he may not have any experience in ours. But he sure can block and handle the speed rush.
