Everyone is quick to point out that Shanahan said "T.O. is not in the Redskins plans." Meaning we will not be picking up T.O., but don't hesitate to question the fact that Shanahan said AH is a Redskin and is contracted and will remain a Redskin.

If Shanahan is telling the truth about T.O. then the obvious is also true...AH will not be traded.

Unless Shanahan is lying which means he could be lying about T.O. also. which is it?

Two different issues are at play here.

TO is a free agent. No need to smoke screen or lie. Just sign him...or not.

AH, on the other hand, may be traded with draft implications. Therefore a smokescreen or lie may be appropriate.
