I agree. That's why I didn't vote. Don't see the need to pay more now or panic and trade him.Why are the only options pay or trade?
He's under contract two more years. "Do nothing" is a perfectly viable option. He's a 31 year old, injury-prone guy who NFL talking heads have said only has a few years left (due to his injury history). This is all about money for Trent - he's not going to lose nearly 1M per week by not playing. He will want those game checks, so he's going to show up, as do the majority of players who hold out in the offseason.
I agree. That's why I haven't voted. Don't see the need to pay him more now or panic and trade him. I think this is being blown out of proportion.

As has been mentioned, with his history of missing a 1/4 of the games and not getting any younger, extending him with more guaranteed money would not be a smart move. That is a cap disaster waiting to happen. Also when he signed his contract he was the highest paid offensive tackle. Right now the $16 million dollar tackle is 4 years younger than Trent and doesn't miss games.

I say trade him right now! We should take the picks and move on.

Amazing people are willing to throw Silverback off the team. FFS, has anyone watched the last couple years?

Nobody wants to throw him off the team. Obviously he doesn't want to be here. According to reports he vowed not to play for us anymore. If that is the case we need to be compensated for him.

Yeah, I'm sure he wants to walk away from Millions.

I felt like I was watching greatness when he wasn't injured.
I felt like I was watching an unbelievably gritty performance when he was hurt and still competent.
All that being said, a lot of specifics still need to come out before knowing what the right move is.
What if all he wants is to guarantee more money in the last year?
Or, if he really vowed never to play for us again.
The situation is clear as mud right now.

If he's as elite as you people claim would should be able to get a first rounder.

If you are saying trade him to get picks you should at least say what a realistic valid offer is
