I believe the Browns were only offering their 2nd rounder for Trent.

Yeah it was the Browns' 2nd. And earlier in the season the Pats' 1st by JP Finflay and Kevin Sheehan.

Now TW is clearly middle fingering the FO, using the medical issue he hates them for as an excuse to not play for this team.

I can understand hating on TW because of all the drama, but I'm more mad at the FO for the way they mishandled it.

Fuck Trent!! He’s as much as fault as the FO, he basically shit on the fans who support him getting a paycheck. Helmet discomfort bullshit, ask him if putting a rubber on his little head hurts.

Trent and his people are not completely innocent in this mess. The pissing match between both sides has been ridiculous.

Also, everyone knows Trent doesn't plan to play even now that he has reported (JP reported this), so the "helmet discomfort" is more on him than the team IMO.

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
 
Showing but refusing to practice or play is the same as not showing, and I think the team would be justified at this point in figuring out whether they can make sure that the contract period tolls so he doesn't get credit for the year. I have always loved him as a player, but I have no respect for this -- you show up to be part of the team, then put the team first. Seriously, it's really bad form by Trent.

The patriots never offered a first. Immediately after that report came out, several sources debunked it as bullshit. Sheehan and Finley have both since reported this and suggested that the offer of a first was likely a false report leaked by the the Skins to drive up a trade market. It didn’t work.

The only teams legitimately interested in Trent were the browns and it’s not been confirmed that they actually offered a second. This also could have been the skins leaking something - again to drive up a trade market.

The truth is, no one was ever going to give up a lot of compensation for a 31 year old, injury prone left tackle, with a history of missing 4 games per year to either injury or suspension. Speaking of which, Trent is also one joint away from being suspended for an entire year. And on top of all of that, this is a player who was just 3 years ago made the highest paid left tackle in the league, received a heavily front -loaded contract, who then tried to force his way out of town with two years remaining on his deal.... and who would almost certainly demand a new contract with his new team or hold out again.

If Trent were on another team, would you want the skins to trade for a player with all THAT baggage?

I sure as hell wouldn’t - and if you check browns fan sites, they are ecstatic this trade never happened.

When Bruce waited to the last minute for a trade, it was again a stupid fuckin retard move. Redskins played this poorly like they always have...the browns pre hype was the time to move him versus post hype browns.

Bruce and this org get zero credit. They’ve earned none through multiple bullshit retarded moves.

Agreed, but we've also seen many players this season that have been able to force their teams to trade them. To me it seems that Trent was unwilling/unable to do anything to force the team to trade him.

As I've repeatedly stated, staying away, keeping silent, and giving Dan Snyder half of your paycheck doesn't do shit to force the team to trade you.

This is the correct take tho...As the Cleveland pick becomes lower in the the draft the value increases versus less games Trent has to turn around a season going downhill. Cleveland thinking process makes more sense to hold on too pick now.

Bruce asked Trent if he would come back if he fired the people only the medical staff who he feels mistreated him. Trent said no, he didn't want anyone to lose their jobs.

Think about that for a second. If you genuinely and sincerely believed that medical staff mistreated you - to the extent of a cancer misdiagnosis - how would you feel about the medical staff?

Well, Trent supposedly is so upset that he abandoned the team that has treated him like royalty for the better part of a decade. The team that gave him the largest OL contract in the history of the league just 5 years ago - AFTER he was suspended 4 games for weed and facing a 1 year suspension for the next violation. The team that front loaded this already large contract at Trents request. He's supposedly so upset with the medical staff that he also abandoned his team mates, many of whom he played with for years.

So the medical stuff is really the reason for the hold out, and for Trent showing such disrespect to the team, his teammates, and the fans - if the medical stuff was serious enough to be the true cause of all of THIS - then don't you think he would want those people to lose their jobs? I mean, if Trent is supposedly making some principled stand for the benefit of his team mates, then the medical staff must be really really bad right? If theyre so negligent, wouldn't you want them replaced so that the rest of the team is safe?

But he didn't want that to happen. In fact, Trent hasn't said anything publicly at all. Its all been rumors from third parties. Why? Because the story is BS. Its not about medical stuff. And Trent knows if HE directly made accusations which are not true, he could be sued for Libel. The medical stuff is just an excuse. Its always been about the money

Screw Trent Williams.

This was what probably leaked by the team or a lie from Bruce directly. I don't trust any info from Redskins Park at this point. Look at the number of former disgruntled players...

I'm so done with this TW situation and the thought it's going to drag out into the offseason is so annoying. If anyone offered a 1st rounder the Skins should have pounced. Bruce Allen is such a petty mother F'er. I get how the front office would be pissed about how Trent has gone about things, but cut your losses man.

TW should get a lot of blame, because he could easily dispel any lies from the team.

He could also have shown up at the beginning of the season and:

a. Prove to potential teams that he is still an elite player.
b. Not give his money to Dan Snyder
c. Be a malcontent and pressure the team to trade him (see Jalen Ramsey)

If he REALLY wanted out of this team, there are a lot of things he could have done, instead of staying away and post stupid cryptic pictures on Instagram.

He could be telling the truth on a helmet being irritating. Post surgical scars can feel strange for years later until they slowly lose their sensitivity. Of course with access to the best medical care and modern medicine money can buy there should be something topically applied or an injection than should make his noggin feel fine inside a helmet.

Trent Williams also says he’s grateful for the organization because they’ve given him a lot over the years. Of Dan Snyder specifically, “it wasn’t his fault.”

Trent Williams said he was in the hospital in Chicago for two weeks and nobody from the Redskins visited him. DeAngelo Hall visited him though.

Trent Williams talks about how scared he was before his cancer surgery. Talked about the impact that had on his family and his young daughters. “I was lucky.”

Trent Williams said during his holdout “There was no communication, there was no conversation” with the front office. He talked with all of the players though

Asked if more guaranteed money could fix his relationship with the Redskins, Trent Williams said he’s not “asking them for a dime.”

I asked Trent Williams if he wanted to be traded and he just laughed. Also worth noting he said how much he still values his friendship with Dan Snyder.

Trent Williams says watching Alex Smith go down last year and “we haven’t had the best history here with medical stuff” made an impact on his desire for more guaranteed money.

Trent Williams also says that it’s crazy for him to be playing without guaranteed money on his deal.

Trent Williams says he’s been watching all the Redskins games. “These guys are my family.” Adds “I hated to see Jay go.”

Asked if he trusts the Redskins, Trent Williams says “there’s no trust.”

Trent Williams tells us he had cancer. DFSP. Growth first started 6 years ago and team diagnosis said it was minor.

Asked about timeline for finding a comfortable helmet for Trent Williams, Bill Callahan tells the truth: “I don’t know.”

Bill Callahan says the Redskins are working to find a customized helmet that Trent Williams can wear without discomfort

Callahan says Keenum could start in Buffalo even if he doesn’t practice all week

Case Keenum still in concussion protocol. Dwayne Haskins got majority of work at practice. No final decision for Sunday in Buffalo.

My personal takeaway is that Trent is a big baby. He's blaming the organization for his own lack of taking ownership over his own health care. It was reported that they recommended that he see a specialist and he didn't. Even if that weren't true, the team trainers are not dermatologists or oncologists. They can be expected to properly diagnose some rare form of cancer. And their not doing so is no justifiable reason to breach his contract and demand a trade.

And Trents upset that his co-workers didn't travel 700 miles from DC to Chicago to visit him in the offseason? So what? Who of us works with co-workers that would? Friends and family - sure.

I'm glad Trent spoke today because its cleared up that he is 100% to blame for this fiasco. If there was ever a first round pick on the table for Trent and Allen didn't take it, i'd be pissed at Allen. But anything less than that, and I actually think this is the one time the team got it right. I would not let a whining POS like trent force his way out of town 3 years after I made him the highest paid LT in the game in a front-loaded contract with 2 years remaining on his deal. So I applaud the team for not caving to his demands.

All this is true but because he has now become a malcontent you can't have him back. You have to move him and this what I'm upset about, the Redskins inability to get over it and move on. They were offered fair value by the Browns and passed. That's bad management.

It really sounds like the Redskins recommended he go see a specialist this offseason, and he did which is when they determined it was cancerous.

Also it makes sense to the that the Browns would offer a first rounder when they were flying high and thought they had good prospects at the beginning of the season. Now they're 2-5 and looking like garbage and know that first rounder is probably going to be decent so of course they wouldn't want to give it up.

Redskins played themselves. Bruce Allen's gamble was that this was about getting more money, obviously it's not considering Trent gave up 7 million during his holdout and didn't even hesitate when asked if a contract extension would solve things. He wants out. We should've obliged if a team offered a first rounder, that Browns pick would be looking great right now.

I wasn't aware of that. I heard Sheehan repeatedly say the Skins never leaked anything through him and rarely do leak things locally.

Anyway, I can agree a 1st might be high. A late 1st doesn't sound crazy to me though.

Fed up with all this story anyway. Just wished the FO handled it better and took any legit offer for a player that obviously wasn't going to play here anymore...

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
 
[QUOTE=mooby;1235893]I can't believe how complicated this shitshow has become. We could have had the Browns first rounder at a minimum and Trent could be gone, and we'd all be happy. Instead we got a great player with a shitty attitude, a shitty executive with a shitty "win at all costs" attitude, and we're probably looking at selling on the cheap this offseason. Thanks a lot asshats.[/QUOTE]My Thoughts [emoji189] Exactly! [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20191101/19d29f8aad5ec88bc0bdeee065435ba2.jpg[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Chico23231;1235961]Im so freaking happy the Nats won the world series, because this jackass helmet and head situation would be ruling the airwaves and print from dc media.



im sick of all this constant bullshit drama. the management awareness is completely lacking[/QUOTE]Ironically the both all of the local Sports Talk shows on both 106.7 WJFK and 980 WTEM are all saying the same thing as you!

And personally I completely agree with you!
