Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal
The biggest question is what is Bruce’s end game? Keeping him to prove a point is simply and play 5 meaningless games is silly. And have him play out his 1 year left?
The only real reason Bruce would want to keep him is for an extension...that’s the only thing I would imagine we would be turning down offers

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal

As Andrew Brandt famously says, "deadlines spur action" if you are holding out for the best offer this season, it would have to be on the trade deadline by October 29th. After the deadline, the biggest turning point will be whether Trent shows up on Week 10 to accrue this season in his contract. If he doesn't show up, his trade value will go up, since he will still be on contract for two seasons. While I assume any team that's willing to trade with him, will need to re-negotiate a contract with him, I believe his current contract becomes a baseline for any negotiations. Finally, the team doesn't have a 2nd round pick in 2020, so Trent could become part of any offseason trade to acquire more picks (and hopefully not to trade those picks for Mike Tomlin). One thing that I do not know is what happens to Trent's $11 mil salary for this season. If he doesn't show up at all, will that be cap carry over for next season? If so, that'd be a plus.

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal
Trade him before the trade deadline of Oct 29. All those who want TW to "be punished" for not honoring his contract are punishing the future Redskin's HC and Dwayne Haskins. Trent IS NOT going to play here either this year or next. Get over it and trade him for a 1st rounder who will replace TW in the OL. But I know Dan Snyder - he's petty and incompetent. He'd rather punish TW then thinking of the future. No one in the NFL respects Dan Snyder as an owner or personnel manager. He's considered the worst owner in the NFL. This buffoonery just reinforces those perceptions of him and of Bruce Allen .

There's absolutely no chance that any offer would be higher during the offseason for a player having 1 year left on his contract in a situation where teams will have many options, versus now for a player having 2 years left in a situation where LT needy teams have very few options... Beyond stupid.
