Default Crazy Trade Idea With Redskins

LT Trent Williams, a multiple all-pro, had a health issue this winter that he blames the Redskins for mishandling and now claims he'll never play for the team again. Perhaps it really is just a tactic to renegotiate a new contract but, if he's serious, I would consider the following trade:

Washington sends:
LT Trent Williams
OLB Montez Sweat

Houston sends:
DE-OLB Jadeveon Clowney
any OT currently on our roster
3rd round 2020 draft pick

Why Washington does it:
Gets rid of a player who doesn't want to be there.
Gets a proven impact pass rusher, something they wanted from Sweat
Gets either a replacement (Kalil) at LT or someone they can groom for the position (Howard, Sharping, Rankin)

Why Houston does it:
Solves their LT issue for the next 3-5 years
Gets a solid edge rusher who does have potential to be great but also has a heart condition that will need watching.
Gets Clowney's impasse off the table.

The third-rounder is just in case the Redskins feel they are giving up more than they are getting in return. Williams is four-years older and Sweat is a career health risk but we'd, at long last, fix the LT position and perhaps not lose much on the defensive side. If it works, losing the third is not a big deal.

Thoughts ((ducking))?
