Where's the cap relief?
Trents money is still counting against the cap.
Snyder gets to pocket all the money from missed games and fines but it's still counting against the cap and the team doesn't get to use the 12m on another player. Also, don't forget to factor in Donald Pens 2m contract with 3m in incentives.



Winning the dick swinging contest might boost Bruce's ego but it does nothing for the team or the product they put out on the field.



They need to cut their losses now and get a 1st for him if they still can.



Bingo

Christian would be a total disaster. Penn was signed and is playing for a reason. Penn was basically retired, he was probably on his couch, he's 50 years old, he comes out of retirement and beats out Christian. That tells you all you need to know.

I would hope he would be capable by year 3. If not, still trade Trent and cut Moses. And draft 2 tackles or use the saved money to sign someone that can play RT and draft a stud LT.

Funny how quickly fans turn on a player.
TW made a few mistake early in his career but for the most part has been an elite if not the best LT in the game.


I love Trent and I dont blame him for wanting to finish his career with a different organization. Trade him to the Pats for the 32 overall pick or a package of 2 and 3s and wish him the best. 4 years from now when he is done, sign him to a 1 day contract so he retires a Skin then put him in the ring of honor.

But this is the Snyder/Allen redskins so of course we are doing the opposite of logical.

TW doesn’t want to play here anymore. For whatever reason. Sure he’s in the wrong - but in the end this is about getting his replacement, not making a statement.

We aren’t a good enough team to makes “statements”. We are one of the bottom teams in the NFL and have been there for 20 years. The fan base has disappeared. If this wasn’t the capital with tens of thousands of fans from around the league (attending our games - making them a “home game”) we’d have under 50% attendance. The HC is going to be fired. The owner is one of the worst in the NFL. The “GM” (Bruce Allen) is a joke and hated by player reps. Stadium sucks and prices are high. The franchise is often in chaos.

FA Players come here to play for one reason: to get overpaid. They get overpaid and then under perform.

The only way out is to draft well and home-grow players. But then we have to figure a way to keep them.


At the end of this season:

BA will have held the line. He will AGAIN prove why he is the most loathed and disrespected GM in the NFL.

TW will lose all this season’s money and pay fines.

We will have to hope 35 year old Penn can hold up this season.

We will be a 5-11 team who lost its best player FOR NOTHING. No trade value, no draft picks to fix our OL.

We’ll be talking about this again next year and hoping Penn can last another year.

We have to re-sign Scherff. If you were him and just saw what happened to TW, AP and how lousy we are, would you stay?

its BECAUSE we are a bad team that we HAVE to take stands when players act like trent. Otherwise, players know they can escape by holding out and telling lies about the medical staff. If we make it that easy, everyone will want out.

It's a fine line between not letting players show they can force themselves out and doing what is best for the team. It's now clear that we are not going to have a good season with or without Trent. The left side of the OL is no where near the top of our problems list.

If we get a good offer, I'm taking it, and moving on.

True, although if anyone on the left side of the OL gets injured, it will move very quickly to the top of our problems list. And Penn isn't a kid....

Yeah an injury would be bad. When I say it's not at the top of our problems list, I'm referring strictly to this season. LT is a huge concern for future seasons. Gonna spend a high pick (preferably 1st round) to get our long term answer.

SF and NE could both use an upgrade, trade Trent now
