Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins

[Irrefutable]

So does Trent have 2 years left on his contract? Then trade him, you cannot count on him otherwise. A high pick and a mid-round pick would be fair.

He has one year left on his contract. He’s not going to bring two draft picks in a trade. Bruce Allen totally mismanaged that trade possibility last year (surprised?) when we might have received a first and another high pick with the Texans.

Right now we would get a second round pick, period. If you resign TW now, it would most likely be a 3 year contract with lots of guaranteed money, which is what he wants. He probably plays for us for two years at a good to very good level. He’s had a year to recover from prior injuries so he should be in great shape for his age. If he’s NOT in great shape, he will not be resigned but traded.

Trent was a team captain. He was the best player on this dysfunctional team for many years. He was well liked by his teammates and coaches. Let’s forget last year and just bring him back to solidify this OL.

The team will draft at least one OT in the draft and multiple picks in UDFA. If the team gets a backup OL player they’ll be happy. If they get a starter, they’ll be very happy. But remember unless the team can resign some players the OL will be a hollow disaster. We’ll need a OG to replace Flowers, Scherff; and an OT to replace Trent/Penn; the Center position is weak; Moses had a terrible year in terms of play and he was a plague with penalties. All we have on the plus side is Martin. Christian is a bust. How is Haskins going to grow with a crappy OL?

Spend the money to resign Trent, as long as he is truly healthy; spend the big bucks to resign Scherff; spend the average money for Flowers; release Penn and Christian and Moses.

Draft an OT in the fourth or fifth round, bring in 3-4 OT in UDFA and hope one is a starters and one a project or backup. Move Martin into C or to replace Moses. Pick up one good OL FA to replace the C or Moses.

This OL is two years from being settled with decent backups. In the 2021 draft I think the team will need to draft high for the OL. Trent is worth the money. Forget this last year, both sides had points.

That's a good question. From what I understood because he was on the "non football injury list" the team could argue that last season shouldn't count as accrued, and the Redskins would have rights on his contract up until the 2021 season... But Williams and the NFLPA could fight that.
So I'm guessing all of that depends on if you wanna bring him back and extend him (in which case it doesn't matter that much), or if you want to trade him (which would only make sense if you did have rights for 2 more seasons).

Does anybody have more info on that matter ?
