I don't think Trent is on the team by week 1. Following the 3rd pre-season game, I think teams are going to start making us offers we can't refuse.

you are probably right, although we could wait a little longer if there is a bidding war.

Speculation that as Clowney and the Texans aren't talking about signing, that he's likely up for trade. Clowney for Williams, much as I hate to see him go, could be a good deal. Texans need an LT, and Clowney could only enhance our front 7. Don't want to see Williams go but I think its a good trade if its on the table.

Id rather have a first round draft pick. Not knocking Clowney at all, but he plays at one of the few positions on the team that is already a position of strength, will want a huge contract, and i'd rather use the money to extend Scherff and Kerrigan. With a first round pick, we could draft Trents successor or some other area of greater need.

As I understand it, Clowney didn't reach a contract by the July deadline so even if they they swapped him for TW they would not be able to sign him long term until next off season, which would mean another franchise tag in all likelihood. Would basically be a 1 year rental with a 3rd compensatory pick at the end of it as the likely outcome

With talent already at the position no way.

I still think Trent comes back.Why? It's been stated multiple times it's not about the money. I think he's serious about the medical staff and he doesn't trust the team. Too much smoke with the staff and TW, McCoy, Cravens etc.

I still think Trent comes back.On the preshows JPFindlay all but said he is gone. Said he should have a story with multiple sources that will give more details about the whole situation.
