He is truly an unbelievable athlete. Love watching this guy play and his attitude and toughness.

Don't forget to mention his leadership, as well. He is truly a great player. Is it too soon to start talking up Trent Williams for the HOF? Probably - but only because we need to Joe Jacoby in the HOF first.

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

Best player we've had since the glory days. The guy is dominant and as tough as they come.

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

When all is said and done he very well could be the best lineman to suit up here, period. He’s well on his way.

He'll be a HOF er for sure.

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

The Redskins have had some good luck at that position. First, Chris Samuels, then Trent Williams.

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

Yep, it's the one position we haven't managed to screw up for the last 18 years. Well deserved for Trent again.

They were a bit before my time lol, I didn't start watching football until 2000-2001, and I really didn't start understanding the game until 03-04.

Yeah I'd also say they have always had good CB'S

Dreen
Bailey
Smoot
Springs
Norman


All big time players

He may be the best athlete this team has ever seen and that is saying a ton. I can't find the tape but if u get a chance look up his play with Melvin Engram from LAC, Engram said after the game that he's never seen a Lineman like TW.

I don't even like hearing Fuller's name anymore. I just get pissed off. He was well on his way to being a really good player for us. He was what we need more of around here, drafted guys that will be here for a while. Oh well :mad:

ummm .... how about:

Joe Jacoby 81 - 87
Jim Lachey 87 - 95
Ed Simmons/Shar Pourdanesh 96 - 99
Chris Samuels 00 - 09
Trent Williams 10 - Now

Yes, there were a couple of JAG's in 96 - 99, but for almost 40 years we have had a HOF caliber LT on the line. That is an amazing run.

I feel like Chris Samuels and Trent Williams are two of my favorite Skins. Would love to see Trent get a ring; wish Samuels could have. The dudes are warriors.

Yeah good for him. Congrats to him!

Is it really though? Nobody can touch him in terms of his overall athleticism.

While I tend to think it’s hard to make these kind of comparisons given changes to the game over time, no one can reasonably dispute that he’d be in the conversation for the top offensive linemen the nfl has seen. And we’ve had our fair share of them. Hope that trend continues.

By the way I’m just saying TW could end up being the best Redskins OL of all time just to be clear

Anyone remember the arguments over Okung vs Williams? Yeah I think we ended up with the right guy

[QUOTE=MTK;1194283]Anyone remember the arguments over Okung vs Williams? Yeah I think we ended up with the right guy[/QUOTE]Yup. I remember them well. Okung was the higher rated guy coming out (although not by much).

Jim Lachey?

Traded a starting QB for him...

Lachey couldn’t carry those guys’ jocks

57 on the NFL's top 100. 6 straight years on this list

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

[quote=MTK;1194297]Lachey couldn’t carry those guys’ jocks[/quote]

Lachey was a very good LT along the lines of Chris Samuels. I have seen them all play (and Jacoby as well) when they were at there best.

Trent is the very best among a very, very good group of left tackles.

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

I was just joking around about Lachey, he was very good

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

As great as Lachey was you didn't see him getting out on screens and running 30 yards downfield to take out a safety the way Trent can. Or coming out on a bubble screen and actually reaching the corner.

Football wasn't played like that back in the 80s, but if they had athletes like Trent Williams in the 80s, they would have found a way to play like that.

His athleticism lets you do some amazing things - he's a big part of the reason Chris Thompson is the threat that he is. He creates the open space, Thompson then uses his talents to take advantage of it.

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

No doubt Trent is one of a kind athletically

Re: Trent Williams Named Sporting News All-Pro For Second Consecutive Year
 

Not about TW, But here is a reminder of how the 2015 Draft class of OL has gone so far...


5. Brandon Scherff
9. Ereck Flowers
13. Andrus Peat
19. Cam Erving
21. Cedric Ogbuehi
24. D.J. Humphries
28. Laken Tomlinson
(Bonus) 34. Donovan Smith


1 out of 8 has proven worthy of their pick...
