Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

After like 8 months of that other thread and you guys don't think we need a new one?

[url]https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/29097862/sources-redskins-trade-ot-trent-williams-49ers[/url]

We get back a 5th rounder this year and a 3rd rounder in 2021.

Trent, thank you for your service from 2010-2018. I will try to remember you for that, not for the last year+.

Now in the immortal words of Ari Gold:

Does that mean that the supposed Dan Snyder Shanahan feud was also a Bruce Allen construct. How damage did that guy do to the Skins????

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

TW will bitch slap Sherman constantly.

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

And for all his bluster ... Trent is playing for the 49ers on the same deal he had with us ... with no extension set yet.


Douchebag.

John Keim retweeted a note from TW
[Quote]I'm thankful this over I thank Dan and the organization for all they've done for me. Still a lot of love for the fans and that locker room. ...[/Quote] he seems bipolar or ignorant of reality. Or both

I think it just got to the point of no return for him and the organization. Both sides could have handled things better, and both sides are now better off.

The Skins of 2020 handled the situation respectfully and as best they could. Once DS cleared house TW had it in his power to acknowledge the moves and come back and work with RR in good faith. Instead we end up with a gaping hole at LT which forced us to use a draft pick on a mid level tackle and TW still doesnt get an extension and has a severely damaged reputation.

In the big picture, both sides are worse off. Redskins got a 3rd and a 5th for a perennial Pro Bowl left tackle, albeit aging and dinged up. TW will never make up the money and reputation he lost by sitting out and running his mouth.

Oh trust me, all will be forgiven here in SF. Shanahan will gloat and laugh at DS saying we got a steal and I bet he’ll probably get a slight bump in salary. FUCK TRENT!!! FUCK HIS RING OF FAME!!

Ron Rivera on the Trent Williams trade: "This was an opportunity to part ways with a guy that wanted to move forward. We'll build the culture with guys that want to be here and feel good about where we are. It gives everybody an opportunity to start clean and start fresh."

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

Of course if the previous regime had handled it better (trade him last year), and if TW hadn't been such a jackass, we could've gotten more... but with the situation being what it had become, I see it has an absolute W ! Who was still expecting more ?

Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

I am so sick of talking about Trent. When this started, I liked TW and partly blamed Bruce Allen and the medical staff. But after a year of this shitte I’m ready for him to go.

I’ve lost some respect for Trent. His greed and excessive salary request, kept us from obtaining a mutually beneficial trade for both the team and himself. $20 mill for a 31 yr old OT who has sat for a year and has had trouble staying on the field due to injuries, is just excessive.

Bye, and I bet most fans will dump his number and jersey. This ended badly for the fans, Rivera, the team and Trent. Adios and don’t let the door hit your azz as you leave.

Close this thread!

Trent will be missed on the field seeing as though he's a top 5 LT but he wanted out for 2 years now and thankfully it's done.

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

I think he wanted to go a contending team and lied instead of being honest. Let's see what he does with his contract here in SF, that will speak volumes. Who knows, maybe him and Kyle Shanahan had conversations and that's why he turned down the Vikings, I don't trust the Shanarats.

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

I know it's all water under the bridge now, but I am curious to know what Minnesota was offering, because I heard that Williams shot the deal down.

Trent killed the Minnesota deal - why?Minnesota is a contender, he protected Kirk Cousins for years and the Vikings were willing to pay him. So what was the beef? M

Trent’s agent, Vince Taylor, recently accused the Redskins of not acting in good faith for Trent - so then HE kills the deal?!
Maybe there was bad blood between Cousins and Williams, but I would guess that Kirk was pushing the Minnesota leadership to hire TW. Cousins knew what Trent was worth and wanted Trent to protect him again.

In the end, the Redskins got only MODEST VALUE for Trent Williams. We have a big hole in our OL. The fifth round pick we got in the trade, was used in a surprising player, Ishmael- G/C. Guard or Center is not a position of need until NEXT YEAR, if we lose Scherff (G) or Roullier (C). So we lost Trent essentially for depth - for a backup player. On the positive side, we do have a third for next year and we saved more money for our cap, which are not even using this year. The best part of this trade was simply to end this distraction. We’ve been talking about this negative issue for 8 months.

Rivera was left with an awful position with Trent. Rivera talked to Trent to try to stay. They even l fired all the people that did Trent wrong, but it appears that this was really ABOUT MORE MONEY. Trent’s outrageous salary demands killed most potential deals, he stopped a possible deal with Minnesota and his agent burned the bridge with the Redskins. Teams knew Rivera was in a tight spot, which is why the bidding was so low. Ultimately, this problem was Bruce Allen’s last turd left for the team. He could have EASILY SCORED a FIRST ROUND pick last year (or MORE) but decided to punish Trent instead of gaining a sweet trade that the team could have really used!!

The team gained what little they could instead of having a first rounder based on Trent’s true worth. More Bruce Allen BUFFONERY!!

I think Trent and Shanarat had spoken and had something up their Sleeve. How coincidental that Staley retires and Williams takes over.

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

I'm already past Trent, good luck to him but It's all about our guy big Chuck now!!

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

So what's the next big distraction? Or maybe we're past that now ..

Bruce Allen shit-canned -- check
Jay Gruden fired -- check
Quinton Dunbar acting a fool, traded -- check
Trent Williams little bitch syndrome, traded -- check

Are we now reduced to on field performance issues to debate? Like "is Haskins really the one?"?

It's always about the QB lol ask Kirk Cousins

Don't let this organization off the hook for this fiasco.
It's been the same toxic environment for 20+ years and Snyder is root of all this.

We all hope it's a new day at Redskins park and maybe it is but don't be so quick to throw a player under the bus.

Hopefully Snyder has wised up and realize his behavior was a big part of the problem.

Ian Rappaport called out Trent and his agent for lying. It was put out and not contradicted that Trent got upset because RR didn't reach out to him before Greg Olsen. From the time BA was fired till now, I don't see any sign that the organization did anything but try to work with TW to resolve it in a way that was reasonable for both sides. Sorry, The 2020 Skins are off the hook in my mind.

I'm not defending ba in any way, I just call things like I see them....and I liked the way it was handled from the jump. I'm not a fan of players that signed contracts holding the team hostage when they decide a few years later they dont like the legal document they signed. I'm glad they let him sit and set a precedent that the team will not bend on these issues. Best player on the team or not. They tried to work with this guy under a totally new regime, and he continued to try to manipulate the situation and fans. I'm glad it played out this way, and after these antics, I'm glad to see him go. This is a rare win, imo, for the skins front office. Now the only thing to do is look to the future.

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

Trent Williams is dead to me...his piece of garbage agent had mentioned in a statement awhile back Trent hope to be in the ring of fame one day. Fuck that shit, he doesn’t deserve it and after his stunt never will. Time won’t heal this one folks, fuck him and his fucked up
scalp.

Maybe a dick was growing out of his head. We will refer to him as Richard Cranium.

Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

There will be hard feelings about Trent for a long time.

I just heard how he was picked up by the 49ers. A couple days before the draft, a perennial pro bowler, Joe Staley (OT), told the San Francisco leadership that he was going to retire. John Lynch, their GM, played his cards very well. He waited throughout the draft and no one picked up Trent. On the third day of the draft, he calls Washington and offers his paltry deal. Rivera was backed into a corner. He had tried to get Trent to come back to play here, early on as HC. Before the draft, Trent’s agent publicly calls out the team for dragging their feet on his trade - burning any bridge toward coming back to the Redskins. Trent’s salary demands were outrageously expensive - which is why the Redskins got NO OFFERS BEFORE THE DRAFT. During the draft, there was only one trade offer after the first day - meaning a third round or later trade. Minnesota. Trent turned it down. So by the time Lynch called, Rivera had little choice but to take the deal. It was either a FIFTH round pick (worthless) and a third rounder next year (not very valuable), or get NOTHING and have Trent sitting out another season.

So Trent got his money, he’s playing for a real contender and the Redskin’s got very little for a player of his caliber. Last year I blamed Bruce Allen, this year I blame Trent Williams. There won’t be many fans wearing Williams on their jersey after this. Let the 49ers put him in their Ring of Fame.

BTW, my guess is that John Lynch called Trent ahead of time about the trade offer he was going to make to Rivera. THAT’S WHY TRENT TURNED DOWN THE MINNESOTA DEAL. Minnesota is a contender and Trent protected Kirk Cousins for years. So why turn down a trade offer late in the draft? UNLESS he knew of the 49ers plan. But whether Trent knew of John Lynch’s plan AHEAD OF TIME, is known only by the two of them. Neither will EVER admit to anything. Trent gets his big paycheck, he finishes his career for an outstanding team that will be a real contender for the SB and John Lynch looks like a genius.

I agree with everything in this post, except one thing: [I][U]Trent couldn't have afforded to sit out another year[/U][/I]. He would have had to play.
Now I'm happy Rivera got rid of the distraction and managed to get some sort of value back, but i don't think the alternative would have been TW sitting out. I think it would have been him playing his contract out and then leaving via FA, which might not be a better option long term than getting what you can get for him now.

Yet again, I'm happy with the trade under the circumstances.

Re: Trent Williams traded to the 49ers
 

The 3rd next year doesn't sound great now. But when the draft rolls around it will be nice. We'll be able to add another top 100 player. I'm perfectly happy with the trade and glad it's over with.
