The #Redskins are actively shopping several players -- including LBs Zach Brown and Mason Foster -- in trade talks and are strong players for C.J. Mosley, sources say. #Ravens have hoped to retain him, but Mosley has a huge market. Washington would need cap space to do it.

This is a move I am interested in. Even at 30 Brown is a top level LB who the shine apparently has worn off of in Washington with Reuben Foster in town and the pursuit of Mosley. If we could get Brown for a 4th or Brown and a pick to slide back to 15 I would be 100% in. You could basically cut Burfict and make this move and come out at about break even cap wise too.

Zach Brown was the LB I really wanted last year but he re-signed with Washington, and I wanted him after his rookie contract was up with TEN too. I'd love to have him in Cincinnati.
They only "difficult" (but not difficult, especially if they cut Burfict) thing would be his ~$9 mill cap hit for 2019 and 2020.
However, with that said, he still was the #3 LB in the league according to PFF.
I'd give up to a 3rd rd pick for him.
