I’m really starting to agree with this idea. If Trent had asked for a reasonable salary, he would’ve been traded in a deal beneficial to both the team and him. Instead he got greedy and asked for an astronomical salary. This scared off almost all or all the teams. Most of the teams interested in him simply drafted two or MORE OT instead of trading for Williams. Their math is similar to them all and the reason Trent will get a low draft pick or NOTHING.

You draft several draft pick OT in the 2nd, 3rd and lower rounds. First, they are cheap $500,000 to $1 mill. Some will be busts (over half) but one or two will make it. Meanwhile, Trent would cost $20 mill per year , and most likely would get hurt AGAIN. Most teams would take the more risky course with drafting cheap OT, versus trading for an Uber-expensive Trent, who hasn’t played in a year, and also
has been hurt.

Bottom line, Trent priced himself out of the market. If he can’t be traded then he either takes his salary or he sits another year. If he’d been less greedy he would have more money, a new team and the Redskins would have good draft pick. Let him sit if he won’t play!!!
