Con: Price to acquire and keep
Whatever it’ll take to get Williams won’t be cheap. The Redskins already turned down a first-round pick from the Browns before the October trade deadline and they’ll likely look for a similar package now. That’s a little too much for a 32-year-old lineman with extensive injury concerns, but history shows the Jets would probably need to give up at minimum one of their two third-round picks for Williams.
Williams wants a new contract as well and the Jets would likely have to negotiate a big one to keep him around in 2020. He has one year remaining on his contract that comes with a $14.5 million cap hit and a $12.5 million base salary and that number would only increase given Williams’ demands. His production and experience are worth a big contract, but signing Williams to a lucrative or market-setting deal would be a mistake. Laremy Tunsil – who is almost seven years younger than Williams – is looking for a new contract and every other left tackle ahead of Williams’ annual salary except Joe Staley is younger than Williams.
