If I'm TW (and I've decided I want to get out of here as fast as possible) I'm telling the Skins I don't ever want to play for them again and then I'm coming back week 10...
That would be nightmare scenario for us...

I agree that would be a nightmare scenario for us, but its not necessarily in Trent's interest to do so. As far as we know, the Browns are the only team interested in trents services now, and we don't really know what they've offered. Unless Trent is DYING to play for the Browns, it might be in his long-term best interest to sit out the entire year.

Then, the team could give his agent permission to talk to other teams in the offseason - 32 teams vs. just the browns. this would create more of a market and ability for trent to work out the framework for a potential extension prior to the trade.
