Shaffer is authorized to negotiate $ terms on behalf of the Redskins, but he's not authorized to discuss trade compensation terms, that falls to Allen.

This meeting is to discuss $ figures. They may still leave the meeting with a major bridge to gap, but it needs to be noted this is a negotiation in earnest.

Redskins, Cousins agent will meet at the NFL Combine | CSN Mid-Atlantic

Could this be even better? Could it mean the Skins and Cousins have agreed to the basic parameters of a deal, and now McCartney and Schaffer are meeting to begin hammering out the finer points? You'd think Allen would be in that meeting if there were stil major $ figures to discuss
