Trent Williams holding out for new deal

[5superbowls3wins]

Again. I’ve read two possibilities. Houston offers a 2020 1st or Jags offer Jalen Ramsey. I’ll take either at this point, and roll with Penn one year. Use our first rounder in 2020 to take best LT available. Maybe Georgia’s Andrew Thomas. It will be a good LT class.

This is a critical year, and they CANNOT afford the distractions or drama. If I had to guess I’d say this is half on Bruce Allen and half on Trent. We can’t do anything about Bruce, but we can trade Trent and move on.

The Texans have the cap room to take TW (most cap room in the NFL). A first-round pick in 2020 would certainly be better than getting a second or third-round pick from the Pats.

I think the TW problem comes down to money. We had $12 million left in cap money before we hired Penn. Why not use some of it for TW? We could get several very good years with him, and time to draft new OL prospects.

If you’re Bruce Allen and someone offers a 2020 first, do you take it?

I love Trent, appreciate everything he's done for the Redskins, but this is a no-brainer.

Maybe we wait him out, another team loses a tackle and has a spare first rounder? Hell, even for a 2nd rounder I'd do it.

The longer this goes the more I believe Trent doesn't want to play for us. He's made plenty of bank in his career and I don't doubt he could sit out the year if he wanted to.

Of. Course. But nobody is offering a first for an aged player who is slightly injury prone.
