Surprised players signed off on that and the non-waiving of team fines. Good for the owners.

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
Sorry Sunny, that post is no longer valid. Doesn't apply to players with more than 3 years of experience. So Trent can hold out all he wants.

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
It would damage his value way too much. He can be out 2 years at 33 years old at the start of 2021 season and expect a heavy guaranteed money deal.

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
No more signing guys with any non guaranteed years at the end. Clearly players are signing those to get all their money asap with no intention of playing out the whole contract. Gotta dangle that carrot every year.

Albert Haynesworth ... how we didnt learn from that front loaded deal is beyond me. I still 100% think he and his agent had every intent of forcing himself out of the contract after the 18 months or whatever it was for all that guaranteed money ... when they signed the contract. They signed that with bad faith. ---------------- One possible way to correct the problem (and teams do this all the time to create current cap space) ... just convert some salary now to guaranteed money on the back end. If its for a vet you know you want to keep for the lifetime of the contract anyway, then theres no harm (unless that player suffers a career ending injury) .. in which case you would have to do a medical settlement/release anyway.

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
Everytime a new post pops up in this thread I hope it's someone breaking the news 1st that we finally traded him. One day this will be the case.

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
Trent not sitting this year or missing time. It would tarnish his brand and teams not gonna bother with him after sitting two years, that’s too long. The deal he would get wouldn’t have a lot of guaranteed money money..and that’s been the sticking point all along.
Trents playing this year, stone cold lock

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
JP said this morning that there is no chance the skins get anything higher than a 4th for Trent.. Even said there has been very little discussion of a trade

Re: Trent Williams ends season-long holdout, rejoins Redskins
Geez.. I'm not sure how I want Redskins to handle this - I definitely do not want Redskins to simply give away Williams without getting a good compensation in return. BUT I want this problem to go away ASAP so Redskins can move forward with the players who want to play for Redskins.

Hold on to him and eventually they will get a decent offer. There will be good teams desperate for a good tackle. And Trent will not sit for two years. Someone is way off on Trent's value. Here is a trade that would be great. https://redskinswire.usatoday.com/20...-with-vikings/ Last edited by Irrefutable; 04-14-2020 at 12:25 PM. |
