Punishing a player with fines and lost game money seems like a real Bruce Allen / Dan Snyder move. “Beat him until his morale improves!”
“If he won’t play for us then he’ll play for no one.”
This management buffoonery is why the Redskins are consistently one of the NFL’s worst teams.
Trade him for a second or third round draft pick for next year, we’ll be drafting for the OL anyway in the draft.
This is pretty standard with every team in the NFL in terms of the fines, and well if Trent doesn't show up, he doesn't get paid. I don't get how is this very different from any NFL team (see Pittsburgh last year with Bell).

Clowney and their LT for Trent. Adam S mentioned the last time a pro bowl/HOF LT was traded Denver gave up a 1st, 2nd, and a 6th. I would take that for Trent.

I was shitting on the Skins earlier for how they've gone about this but if we can actually start and win a trade war for Trent I'm all for it. Love the player but everyone's got a price.

Hell to the no!
Maybe if he had a couple years left, with a team friendly cap hit...but this would be giving up a perennial pro bowl LT, for a one year rental for over $15 mil...NOPE!
I'm all about waiting for the deal of the century, or no deal at all.
BTW, if he DOES come back, the Redskins can forgive all these fines...the fines are standard practice across the NFL. Teams would be stupid not to fine the players for not showing up to work.

I want Trent, period. So does every player on the team (with the exception of Penn). And virtually every fan. They need to figure out how to get it done.

Wow... on Sheehan's radio show (https://omny.fm/shows/kevin-sheehan-show/08-13-19-the-kevin-sheehan-show-hour-2) , Adam Schefter, who reported the Skins were turning down every trade offers they received for TW, made 2 very interesting points:
1) Teams are not trading players... until they do. Reminded us the Raiders were not trading Khalil Mack... until they received an offer they couldn't refuse.
2) In 1995, the Broncos traded holding out Pro Bowl LT Gary Zimmerman to the Vikings for a 1st, a 2nd and a 6th ! He said the situation is virtually identical, so that'd be the baseline, and anything less than a 1st would be ridiculous.

I wonder what it would take for Allen/Snyder to say yes. Maybe if they get an irresistible offer, they will pull it off. Won't hold my breath but you never know.
