WR James Washington requests trade

Hopefully you are kidding. He has done nothing to indicate he is worth a 3rd. Anything above a 5th is an overpay.
I understand how you feel about the player. But, the "deal" is better than the player perhaps. He is on his rookie deal (cap friendly), and he is young and can still grow with a team. Then, at this point the need at WR is so great. We over pay with a 3rd rounder for the "deal" and not as much the player. He is a good player, some one is going to trade for him.
