Hopefully it gets resolved prior to the draft so we can add another young player(s) immediately.

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

Sometimes you have to go backwards a little before you can go forward, like with Dunbar we are never going to get value for TW, a third this year and a 2/3 next if it is on the table will be it and will allow the team to move forward. Getting so little in return for these guys is going to make the path back to respectability a good bit longer

Much easier for Trent and his agent to try to blame it on the Redskins than acknowledge these facts. It is pretty clear that the number of people fooled by this nonsense has gotten smaller and smaller, and certainly no one with any decision authority for any team has bought into it. If Trent's agent has still not advised him to wake up and smell the coffee, he needs a new agent. If Trent is driving this bus against his agent's advise, he may not play this year either.

Well, I hope the Redskins stand their ground. You simply can't settle for anything less than a 2nd round pick unless the offer is sweetened with a solid player of a position in need.

I'd be fine if this drags into 2021 so long as they don't settle for peanuts, as has been mentioned already.

Actually, after looking at the draft chart, I might just take that. Those two thirds are technically more value than their 2nd round pick.

That would give the Redskins four picks in the top 79. Could probably turn that into Chase Young, OT, CB or WR, TE... even more than that if they decide to trade down.

We've been going backwards since 1999, the year Dan took over.

Trent's agent is terrible. The people who Trent had issues with are no longer with the team, so honestly I don't want to hear about irreconcilable differences between him and the team.

This is about money. And you can't blame the Redskins wanting fair compensation for who has been their best player in the team.

It is going to have to drag into the season to get a second. His value will never be as high as it was right before last year's trading deadline when a couple contenders needed help at his position. I think there two problems to trading TW right now, the combination of what he wants and what the Redskins want.
