Trent Williams holding out for new deal

My concern is neither party will budge. Williams seems adamant about not playing for us anymore and the team seems adamant about not trading him. I don't trust Allen with a situation this tenuous. Just a poor distraction prior to the season starting, but it is what it is.

The lack of faith in Allen is well placed. But I really do think this is a hard one to screw up. In a game of chicken, Allen is in a mack truck worth $21M and Trent's in a sedan.

In the trade market, there are three vultures competing over one body.

It's either Trent shows up week 1 or Trade him for a 1st or Elite player.

New England is probably out predictably:

I think Houston is going to need to pony up the 1st rounder. Interested to see what Miami would offer or if any other teams have legitimate interest.

The fans have erected a 3 Ring tent, as Ringmaster Snyder laughs maniacally through the bullhorn while slipping another dollar into his pocket, while the fans eat soggy popcorn from their own tears.
