It looks like the Washington Football Team is seeking some help at the tackle position, as news has broken that they are trading a future draft pick for Davide Sharpe, formerly with the Las Vegas Raiders.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Washington will be giving up a 2021 sixth-round pick for Sharpe, and will be getting a 2021 7th-round pick in return.
Sharpe is a 6-foot-6, 330 pound tackle who has played in the NFL since 2017, appearing in 24 games. He will instantly have a chance to win the starting left tackle position in Washington, competing with Geron Christian, Cornelius Lucas, and Saahdiq Charles, who was drafted this past season. With roster cuts coming this weekend, Sharpe will have to make his presence felt quickly if he wishes to stick around for long, but the fact that Washington would trade a future asset for him alludes to the fact that they like what they are getting in return.
