the Redskins have no leverage and must believe there's a better deal out there. On the other hand, this is the Redskins and it is my sincere hope that Dan Snyder doesn't change a thing and lives to be 150 years old.
If this is true it is just further truth that the Redskins are a Â
complete clown show. 1st round pick for a 31 year old tackle with an inability to stay on field. Sounds like they turned it down out of spite, which would totally track with the MO of the Danny Boy lead Skins. If this is true the Pats pretty much coming out saying they don't think much of the draft class next year, at least at the elite talent level.
Skins are either stupid or there is more to this story. Â
Also, as dumb as the Skins often appear to be, even they arent dumb enough to turn that down. At first youd think it was concoted by Williams agent but you would hope he's not that tone deaf.
I'm sure someone has offered a first for Trent Williams Â
I know they are steadfast on getting a player for player type trade, but at this point, Williams has flat out said he will never play for the Redskins again.
Do they really think that they are going to do any better than a first? That is why I am not believing this report.

Is that true about the player for player trade? This is the type of reason they are consistently a 500 football team. Thank God I wasn't born a Skins fan I'd probably would have jumped ship a long time ago.

over IR. Finlay is pretty connected with the team. IR has a history of bad reporting. If anything, IR's report is probably spin from NE to reduce upsetting the apple cart on the team. Finally, Gary Uberstine was on 106.7. He used to be an agent and dealt with Allen a lot. He represented Kennan McCardell when he was holding out And he said he had dealt with Bruce Allen a lot and it would not suprprise him at all if he dug his heels in and refused to make a trade just out of obstinacy

It makes no sense as something that NE would do. If anything it's the opposite.

I disagree. If the current LT knows they are shopping for TW, it might make for a disjointed locker room. Why do you think that makes no sense?

Because the Patriots have let two LTs go in free agency and aren't about to spend massive draft capital on a 31 year old LT.

I was misunderstanding what you were saying ne wouldnt do
If the offer was a first round selection from the Pats Â
the Redskins could be waiting for a better offer. Either an additional pick from the Pats or a 1st round selection from a team that's not likely to offer the 30-32 selection.

It was probably the Skins themselves planting a false story to hopefully drum up interest by other teams to offer more. The only truth to this whole issue is that Trent will never play for Washington. The org. has played the wrong hand with him thinking fines would force him to capitulate. Trent's made $95M. The fines would only be taken from future paychecks. They can pursue the pro-rated portion of his signing bonus ($1.6M), but that is hardly a figure that is punitive.

Finley is reporting it and apparently he has never been wrong about anything Skins related. Banana land them turning this down, they won't get a better offer. Pats are probably overpaying a bit, which is crazy to say, but they are in a unique situation. Billy B is probably trying to rete to his boat once he gets 10 superbowl rings.
It makes no sense as something that NE would do. If anything it's the opposite.
They are so unorthodox. They traded a first for Cooks on year and then let him go in FA the next.
Consider this. They may not feel Wynn is a good fit - yet - at LT. And Williams is almost a sure thing. A guy they could probably get another 3-4 good years from...So it could be plausible.
I believe him when he says he will never play for them again. The redskins should as well.
I see no way this is true.
and if it is, thank you Redskins

I think this is right. Williams seems committed to his cause.

From what I understand, this is false. “Unequivocally not true” was the precise wording. So, carry on
The Redskins are in complete denial about the situation with Williams. I really think they expect him to come back.
Do they really think that they are going to do any better than a first? That is why I am not believing this report.

This. Plus Wynn is prolly better suited to OG or RT.

Same, no chance they turn that deal down. I also don't think BB would even offer that and then pay him on top of it.
Quote:
would have taken that. Skins are far from competing, Williams is 31 and has no intentions of re-joining the team without a mega deal.
Patriots 1 is almost a 2 though. I would take a 1 from almost anyone else.
LOL. You knew someone would say it.
