After the NFL reinstated Su’a Cravens earlier this month, the safety is attached to his second year of his Redskins rookie contract.
But the Redskins, following a tumultuous year with their former second-round pick, look to be trying to unload Cravens. Washington is gauging the trade market for Cravens, Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports (on Twitter).
Three years remain on Cravens’ deal, but the Redskins experienced trust issues with the once-coveted USC defender. Cravens retired, then unretired, then was placed on the reserve/left squad list.
As a rookie, Cravens played in 11 games and started three. Playing both linebacker and safety, Cravens made 33 tackles in 2016. The Redskins were planning to move him to safety exclusively in his second season, but Cravens’ complicated 2017 nixed those plans.
I’d give up a 5th for him
Cravens trade value can only go up through playing. Play him at least half a season and trade him on expensively to a team on a division win run who needs more help to replace a depleted defensive backfield. That’s if you don’t like him once he’s back. If you do like him once he’s back, keep him. Throwing away yet another top sixty draft pick cheap would be very short sighted and thriftless.
Would fit in Pettine’s Packer D…cheaper and probably better than Burnett.
Definitely.. would make sense, pack just got a few compensation picks.. because of rookie contract and upside might take a 4th..
Cravens for M. Bryant seems fair
Lol no it doesn’t.
Cravens and a 4th rounder to Pitt for Bryant seems better
hahaha koolaid is spiked
Cravens didn’t even play in the league last year bro.
Would you like a 7th? Signed Jerry Jones & the Boys.
Sounds like a good reclamation project for some veteran leadership on defense. Any word on who maybe in the market? Phillips and the Rams? The No-fly zone in Denver. The patriots???
Going to the Pats.
