It is not a big deal if Trent is a Brown, the Browns can have him
I'd rather we get him.
Me too. Beyond the obvious upgrade of Trent over Reiff the other reason I really wanted him is then we could focus on our other needs in the 1st RD. If we don’t get Williams, I feel like we have to go with a CB and OL (in either order) in the 1st. Obviously if a top DE or WR fall to us we shouldn’t pass them up but it just gets more complicated at that point.

I believe it was Mark Twain who said, "Any time you find you have similar interests to the Browns and Jets, it is time to pause and reflect."

Is defensive end really a big need? Vikings have Hunter and Odenigbo

I have DE as our #7 need after guard, corner, WR, safety, D Tackle, O Tackle.

I guess this trade with Williams depends on what the Browns do with their pick?

If they stand pat and take an OT they are probably out of the running.

Although Jets are on the clock. They were rumored to want him too right? If they grab a OT here I'll be feeling even better.

It is a double edged sword. It helps us get Williams, but it hurts our chances of getting a good tackle in the draft.

Love it. Becton was not somebody I wanted.

Well, they just grabbed Becton. And you make a good point. Although I think all the OT's that have been taken were never going to make it to us. Jones and Jackson are the only two that I thought may fall to us.

I was thinking they could fall into trade range.

No competition left.
We have to be the huge favorite to trade for Williams now.
