The Washington Redskins have some holes on their roster. They should look into acquiring these three players before Tuesday’s trade deadline.

Every year, the NFL trade deadline comes and goes with very little fanfare. Trades are less common in the NFL than they are in any other league given the way that rosters are constructed. Still, a couple of teams usually end up making deals, and there are always rumors about other players that could be moved.
