Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins

Some people make no sense here. I wonder if the same people complaining about the burned up money on injured players like Alex Smith, Jordan Reed, Vernon Davis, etc,etc, want to extend a player who will be 32 with a history of multiple nagging injuries with a 4 year deal with a good chunk of guaranteed money.

Well, I think you have consider he’s probably a top 3 left tackle in the game. Health and age is certainly a concern and should be a main issue when/if we negotiate a deal with TW to comeback. That’s why you can’t go crazy money or a long term deal.

All the guys we are going to release are largely failures, hurt too much or are not playing up to the level of their salary. Trent has had a year to renew, both physically or mentally. He is still the best OL on this team. He is still in the top of the NFL for OT.
Keep him and fill a big hole on the team. Penn was a one year bandaid.

We still have to draft with our top picks ( third or fourth rounder) for the OL. But resigning Trent, Scherff and Flowers stabilizes our OL. We.’ll get two years out of Trent, by that time we can have drafted his replacement.
