naptownskinsfan Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Part of me is actually wondering whether or not they really think Williams is going to show up by the deadline for this to count as a year. If Bruce thinks he will, then that could be when they want to install Haskins as the starter. It makes sense. But what doesn't make sense is.....even if Trent shows up, how long will it be to get into game shape? Every day he doesnt play, his value is going down because we don't know if/when he will be ready to play. Hell, if he comes in and plays for us, he could mail it in, which would be worse for Haskins than playing with Donald Penn protecting his blindside. The handling of this situation has been terrible, and lays at the feet of Bruce Allen. Sadly, the owner can't be bothered to do anything about it.

Slateman Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I still think he should show up, play a down, "get a headache" and then sit out under the concussion protocol for the entire season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceinthehouse Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 All I know, is Bruce has till 4pm, Oct. 29th to decide to trade Trent, or not. That's 12 days from now. After that, we'll have to wait till next off season to move him. He could come back after the bye week, to acrue a season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsey did the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 On 10/13/2019 at 12:34 PM, e16bball said: So the only rational strategy is to deter the players from holding out/demanding trades by demonstrating that it won’t work. Make it clear that if you choose to do this, your situation will only get worse, not better. And that only works if everybody (or most everybody) is on board and sticks to the gameplan. Which I think is what we’re seeing around the league right now, and I think Snyder/Allen are only all too happy to ride the hard line for the owners. That would be collusion, but that cannot be! We KNOW that the owners don't collude against the players (or penalize teams who don't play along with the not-collusion). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 If I had to gamble, I’d say you end up trading with New England for their 1st. More and more I’m starting to realize how much of a problem Baker has been in regards to our failures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Greg Robinson says he's been benched as Browns left tackle. If Brice Allen wasn't such an idiot the Redskins could get multiple picks from the #Browns for Trent Williams https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/10/25/greg-robinson-says-hes-been-benched-as-browns-left-tackle/ via @ProFootballTalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aceinthehouse Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 OT Gregg Robinson, TE Njoku, 2020 1st rounder, 2020 4th Rounder, 2021 2nd rounder I would be happy then.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do we want Greg Robinson? Also, no way we get two firsts and one of the best young TEs in the NFL. If Njoku is thrown into this trade - which I doubt will happen - then we probably would only get a 2020 2nd instead of a 1st for Trent.

Skins212689 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Some here wanted to talk about Williams missing games and not playing all 17 games in years. Guess It's time to call J.J. Watt injury prone. It's his 3rd consecutive season going on I.R.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
