Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins

[Chico23231]

Sadly at this point if someone offers a second rounder, you take it immediately

[skinsfaninok]

If we get a 2nd for him, we can draft a LT in that round and be fine, it's a good tackle class

[SFREDSKIN]

I would approach teams like the Browns, Bucs, Vikings, offer Williams for Njoku and a 3rd or OJ Howard similar deal or Kyle Rudolph similar deal, maybe a 4th if a 3rd is too steep.

Agree O.J Howard and a draft pick would be great.

Even Brate and a 3rd will be fine at this point, I don't want Njoku, dude is like Reed made of glass

I'd prefer Njoku and a 3rd but I'm not sure the Browns wouldn't consider that steep. Then again they can draft his replacement and get 2-4 good years out of TW so maybe they'd be OK with it.

Not sure about the Buccs and Howard. If they do replace Winston they will want a good TE target for the new guy to be comfortable with, especially if they want to attract a good FA like say Rivers.

I think Rudolph is capable but maybe on the decline. Most of Reeds yards came with Cousins throwing to him, and Rudolph hasn't seen the same kind of production since Cousins went to there. I'd aim higher in any FA/trade deal.

Broncos talking heads are all giddy about TW being on the trading block. I can see Denver giving up their 2nd round pick fir him, maybe more than that.

I think Denver and Cleveland are ideal suitors for Trent. They have both the need and the cap space

Tampa Bay, Jets and Colts...also teams to watch.

[skinsfan69]

I don't want OJ Howard. He has underachieved and been often injured. The Browns seems like he most logical choice to get a deal done. They wanted him last year.

[Chief X_Phackter]

I think the sticking point will be how much a potential trading partner is willing to pay Trent on a contract extension, more than what draft capital they are willing to part with. He may get a big dose of reality here in the coming days.

His number (per year) will probably go down just to get out of town...but it really all about the guarantee at his age.

Im trying to figure out the cap ramifications if TW is not traded and he doesnt report.
Does his 14.5 or just the 2M option or none count against the cap?

Ive read we can fine him 30k per day missed in TC then with hold each weekly pay check as he misses the weeks, one week at a time.

“Trent is excited to resume his Pro Bowl career with a team interested in a player of his stature,” Williams’ agent, Vincent Taylor, told Ben Standig of TheAthletic.com. “We really appreciate and respect [owner] Dan Snyder for the chance to seek another opportunity.

“This isn’t about a contract, but time for a change of scenery.”

Cool Mr. Agent, its not about the money so now the hurdle of finding a team that will trade assets and give TW a new LTD is off the table!! hell yeah! Im taking your word for it guy.

Now, per his agent, its just about finding a new team willing to give up a 2nd R! That should make getting a 2R much easier if the new team also doesnt have to pay him 4/80/50

Only the $2M prorated bonus would count against the cap. The remainder would not. But it doesn't matter because Rivera will trade him, it's the sensible move. If you're trying to change a culture you need to have nothing but guys who want to be here.

Thank you, tried reading about it last night and couldnt 100% figure it out. Came away thinking perhaps wed get like weekly cap relief but that didnt seem right.

Unlikely but what about a straight swap with the Broncos for Justin Simmons? We need a S and we can then concentrate on OL, LB, WR and CB in FA & the draft.
