Report: Washington involves LB Ryan Anderson in trade talks

As the final roster-cut is less than a day away, Washington is reportedly involving LB Ryan Anderson in trade talks.

With less than a day until the Washington Football Team is forced to cut down their roster to 53 players, a report has surfaced that LB Ryan Anderson is being raised in trade talks, according to Albert Breer.

Anderson has played well in training camp thus far, but his position on the Washington defense is an interesting one, as his position is unknown thanks to the switch from a 3-4 to 4-3 scheme. In the old 3-4 scheme, Anderson played as an outside linebacker, but in a 4-3 scheme, he doesn’t fit perfectly into a DE edge rusher role.

Nonetheless, Anderson has played well thus far, and Washington would likely be able to at the very least get a decent mid-round draft pick for him in return if they were to find a trade suitor. Stay tuned.
