That's what I feel they are doing. I honestly don't think the team is attempting to retain him. They realize and accept he's done in DC.

But....number one the Browns didn’t need Duke like we need Trent so he was “expendable “ and number two he isn’t older.
That being said yes if a contender at some point down the road needs a LT to put them over the hump they might over pay.

A 3rd for a running back is still pretty generous. The position is just easier to replenish than a left tackle. Yes, I get the age difference. But, TW is still considered top notch. A 3rd for all things considered is fair for TW.

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal

I’m happy to pay T-dub a little more money and more guaranteed money over the next several years while we transition to Haskins, protecting his left side. It’s tough to find a top 3 performer at such an impactful position, even at his age.

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal

Just watched the game. I'm taking a road trip to Silverbacks home tomorrow and begging him to come back.

Lol let us know how that goes for you. Think he's serious about not playing for us anymore.

That tatoo is insane and pricey! Bet Trent spent also a big portion of his day at the parlor for that one.

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal

The Redskins should offer TW more guaranteed money or trade him. NOW. There is no in between.I think we could get a 2nd or 3rd from a team with lots of empty cap space - like the Texans. If the Redskins want to keep TW they should stay so in public. Show him the love! But I’m sure Bruce Allen will make the worst possible choice - like hinting that they are going to punish TW into coming back to play.

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal

Washington has told multiple teams this summer it is not trading 7-time Pro Bowl OT Trent Williams, per sources. Williams has held out of camp, but Washington hasn’t flinched. Teams repeatedly have called about Williams, teams have inquired, and so far, teams have been rebuffed.

Per Adam S.

Well guess we're going to keep him as a disgruntled player who refuses to play and not getting anything in return. Very Bruce Allen-like. He's not playing for the Redskins anymore. Get something in return now.

I bet $21 million he will.

21 million dollars seems like a good reason to show up the week before the season starts.
