I have to say this: I hate that it seems a forgone conclusion that we're trading Trent. I wish there was some way we could keep him on the team.

He's been a warrior for us, playing hurt, and outright dominating when healthy. You can count on one hand (with a finger or two left over) the number of left tackles that you might say you'd be equally happy protecting Haskins, and I would think that would be worth more than a second round pick (yeah, I know he's 31 and coming off an injury and off year, but if you've seen the workout videos he's posted, he looks ready to go -- I am still amazed at the quickness of a guy that big).

Tackle is the one position that the Redskins seem to get right over the years (Samuels, Lachey, Jansen, Williams, and Jacoby -- I mean, what other team could boast a list like that?), and I hate to think we have to try to start over at that position. But it definitely sounds like we will have to.
