By that standard, Green Bay is getting a fourth-rounder for him in 2019 instead of the equivalent of a fifth-rounder the following year. It's like Wimpy used to say:

As for the Redskins, they have to be ecstatic. They get to audition a good safety dirt cheap for the rest of the season before deciding what they want to do with him.

On top of that, we just weakened an already weak spot on the team even worse. Throwing in the towel early I guess is what this is.
