I would 100% bring him back. He could still be a dominant LT for another 3ish seasons. One less hole to fill and 1 more pick to fill another hole. I don't see it happening under any circumstance so it's probably moot.

If Bruce is canned and suddenly TW is cool with playing here I’d take him back, but I’d also consider trade offers for him

I would too but if it takes a lane Johnson type of extension, pass

Tear up the last year of this contract and offer him a 3 year deal that is for good guaranteed money but not a super high overall amount per year. But yeah, if he wants the moon, no thanks.

I love Trent but Id trade him ... even for a 2nd at this point. Create some cap space, get some resources back .... but hes never suiting up for us again.

If we were to somehow land a proven elite coach, I'd be all for signing him to a longer than normal contact, for just that reason. Perhaps nothing as crazy as the 10 year deal Gruden got, but more than the usual 4 years than is usually given to the lower-tier guys.
If we can get the right coach and GM, i'd love to do what SF did when they gave Shanahan and Lynch 6 year contracts right off the bat. Giving them that commitment right off the bat so they both know they have some time and aren't under the pressure to sacrifice the long-term to win now.
A proven elite coach would not come to be under the wrath of Dan Snyder unless he was given a sweet deal he could not get anywhere else. Unless of course he was an ex-player who was starting to have mental issues from CTE and wasn't thinking clearly.

The news about Snyder’s HC’s search is that NONE of the competent HC want to come here with Bruce Allen as GM. That perhaps is the REAL final nail in the coffin for BA. Snyder has seen the “FireBruceAllen” movement grow and grow and seen the fan base shrink and shrink. Ten years ago Snyder fired his last lackey, Vinny Cerrato when the media and fan pressure rose to current unfavorable levels. It’s an easy move and may give Snyder the ability to actually hire a highly talented HC. The new HC may also want assurances that Snyder will stay out of football decisions. Snyder has almost always gone with offensive-oriented HC so I don’t see him changing this time, especially with Haskins needing good coaching.
I agree with prior comments that it doesn’t matter whether we have a Offensive or Defensive-minded HC. But Snyder is simple in his thinking and will go for a offensive-leaning coach to bring up Haskins. Only by firing Bruce Allen can we get the coaching talent this team has lacked. I especially think a very good DC will instantly improve the Defense into the top half of the NFL. The defense is young and has some core talent IF JUST COACHED BETTER. Again, only by firing BA, can Snyder hire the HC and DC the team needs to really change.
Finally, I wonder if Snyder is worried about the NFL itself. Snyder is considered a loser and incompetent by most, if not all, the other owners. But Snyder’s continued mistakes is hurting the NFL image. The NFL is doing everything it can to ignore the rapidly eroding Redskin home stadium fan base. There are no tv shots of the whole sections of empty seats or the vast number of opposing team jerseys - nor any discussion by the tv commentators on this subject. Will the NFL allow Snyder to further destroy what’s left of the fan base with another 10 years of management buffoonery and poor football? That may be the biggest reason why Bruce is dumped after the SB this year!

I think the reason Dan is befriending Alex Smith is he's going to need a new BFF after he finally fires Bruce. If Snyder wasn't rich would anyone hang around the guy?

Snyder is a billionaire loser who has to hire protégés like Vinny Cerrato and Bruce Allen to be his buddy. Too bad neither of these guys knew squat about winning football although Bruce was good at winning “off the field”. Lol.

Idk what would change this year that would make David Shaw come to the NFL, but even if he wanted to I think he would think twice about working for one of the worst FO's in the NFL.
Sources said Dan Snyder is beginning to understand the gravity of his situation and that major changes could be coming to the Skins front office this week.
At least we have quotes like this to have faith in though. Come on Dan! The path forward gets clearer by the day.
