Trent Williams holding out for new deal

[MTK]

Bringing in Penn makes me think Trent could really have his heels dug in for the long term. Not good.

That was my thought too. If they sign him for $1.0M then it will tell me they're just trying to bolster the depth. If they pay $3M or something then I'll be a little concerned about Trent, it will tell me they think they have a roster hole they need to fill.

true the contract will say a lot if they sign him

Or it is intended to pressure Trent to make a deal. Doubt it will work, but that could be the thinking.

I definitely think that could be in play. If that's the case I actually think that's legit: you're not in a position to negotiate if the person you're negotiating with is your only option... you're right, not sure it'll work, but that'd be the right thing to do IMO.

Considering the Redskins problem with injured players extending a player who misses 1/4 of the games, is always nicked up and over 30, with two years left on his contract would not be a smart move. It would be a different story if he was 25 and rarely missed a start.
