Multiple teams interested in trading for him. I would not b surprised if the Colts were  one of those teams. A 6 overall pick and only 25.  I think it would take a 2nd rounder at least.  If they could get him with say and 2nd and another lower pick,  I would go for it.  

As much as I may chide people for lowball trade offers, I think a 2nd may be too much for his production level and what may be a 11 game rental

I am watching the Jets game and I must admit, I am not overly impressed with Williams.  Mayb playing in a one gap system would benefit him?  

And this should have been the game where he would have shown off some skills getting to the qb, as this was really the first game this year where the Jets were consistently playing with a lead. 

 

I think this is a lot closer to a 5th round pick territory.

If we win this week I could see Ballard being interested in Williams and maybe a few others.  A trade could also involve players like Odum, Gaethers or Wilson and a pick.  I think winning this week would make a trade more likely.  We could use DL and WR help for a run.  Not to mention we are in deep trouble if Costanzo goes down for any length of time.  JMO.

I HIGHLY doubt that it happens, 

 

I am usually against all the trade for this guy, trade for that guy bantor......

 

But to me..... right now, DT is a HUGE priority, for this team, right now.

 

I would offer a fourth round pick and and a conditional pick, plunk him in the rotation at DT (both spots)

 

Clowney is a much more valuable player, and was traded for a 3rd, and 2 non starters

 

He lines up at DE and DT, he is really good against the run, he also gets some pressure

 

He is basically a half year rental, as he is on the last year of his contract

 

We could work out a long term deal if he plays well

I’d offer them a 3rd round pick and Haeg for Williams. They seem to like doing business with us. The trade in the 2018 draft and they also have 3 former Colts on their team (Anderson, Basham, and Hairston).

 

Or just wait till FA. Which is way more likely because you know Ballard likes dem picks lol

Jets will ask for no less than a 3rd round pick for him. Wait until he hits free agency. 

A 3rd round pick wouldn’t be bad considering we have two 2nd round picks. Plus I think the roster is nearing the state where there’s enough young high-ceiling players that you can afford to trade a 2nd or 3rd round pick.

 

Plus the Colts could use him now as opposed to later. Once we get into December, we’re going to need a run stopper like him because Hunt and Stewart ain’t cutting it.

I couldn't agree more.  He would be the perfect addition if we wanted to upgrade the defensive side of the ball.  He is young and he would also be a major contributor for many years to come.  Hopefully Ballard is interested and can he can strike another deal with the Jets.  We can afford to trade a 2nd or 3rd right now and get an immediate return in a position of need.

Slightly off topic, but did anyone recognize B/R got rid of the comments section they had. There are other options, but not the standard comment section. 
 

Over the years, I did catch when they were pushing an agenda, they’d close the comment section, but like I said, 100% gone now.

This is okay.  We didn't draft him there.  He's a solid run stopper now and he does get pressure on the QB.  Just what we need and he is available.  It would be like deja vu with Booger McFarland.

Stewart isn't doing horrible but Hunt isn't anywhere near the same player he was last year.

      2025 Mock Draft

      By tweezy32 · Posted

      I'm all for doubling down and going EDGE in the 1st again. Just got to make sure we get the right one. Depending on where we draft, I'm okay with trading up a couple of picks to snatch the better pass rusher of the bunch. Since there will be a good amount of rushers, I hear, let's go get the better one. I can also see the draft being the opposite as this years. Most teams will go defense now in this draft, and very good offensive players fall. I think we are perfect on offense, that's why I'm okay with trading up to get the guy we need on defense.

      IMHO , its all about perspective   If you treat Pierce as WR1, you will be disappointed   If you treat Pierce as a solid contributor, you will be pleased   - The man can block, maybe the best blocking WR on this team - The man has speed - The man can rotate in with our other WRs   I do believe that AD Mitchell will take over as a starting outside WR   The reality is, 17 games is a LONG season,    Pittman and AD Mitchell will be "fresher" for the end of the game as they are rotated in and out   The odds say that there will be injuries, and we could see Pierce be a starter on either side   I for one, WANT to keep Pierce thru his rookie deal (We will see after that)

      Zach Moss is no RB1.  If he showed signs he was the Bills wouldn’t have traded him for Hines who also is no RB1.  Moss is a RB 2.  A good one too.  Fortunately for him a season playing behind the Colts OL worked out favorably for him. Moss became available because we have an RB1 and the Bengals jumped at the chance to fill a hole in their lineup and Moss can do that like he did for the Colts when Taylor wasn’t available.  He is not a back teams have to worry about like they have to do for Taylor.  Every team needs an RB1.  He was the Bills RB1 for a short time and shipped off to the Colts for Hines.  And they drafted him.  He certainly belongs on a NFL roster.  I wish he stayed to back up Taylor.  But money and opportunity always talks as it should.  I worry about our RB position if something happens to Taylor for a long period.  I think we should be looking for a proven player who would be that true backup you can rely on behind Taylor.  Right now that backup position is a position that concerns me.   The other being starting FS.
