SonnySideUp Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) Looks as if the Skins were trying to get a 1st round pick AND Denzel Ward from Cleveland. https://heavy.com/sports/2019/10/redskins-trent-williams-browns-denzel-ward/ "Redskins Insane New Asking Price for Trent Williams Revealed If the Cleveland Browns will want to bring in Trent Williams before the trade deadline, it’s going to cost them. The Washington Redskins are going big-game hunting. The Redskins don’t just want high picks back for the seven-time Pro Bowler. They also want high-caliber players. According to NFL Network Insider, Ian Rappaport, one player Washington has inquired about is corner Denzel Ward, who was a Pro Bowler as a rookie."

If he tries to go that route there is definitely something they can do. Happened to be watching Finlay when the Trent news broke. He says its worse case for the Redskins. It makes the Trent contract a 1 year deal left, lowering trade value. Edited October 29, 2019 by Skinsinparadise Link to post Share on other sites
alwaysaskin Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Trent will have a mysterious lower body injury the rest of the year, and the dumbasses deserve this Link to post Share on other sites

nonniey Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) The highest pick the Redskins can now expect for Williams is a 3rd rounder (They may be able to swing an additional later pick in a deal - maybe). @Carex - comments?

Skinsinparadise Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Finlay also said he knew for a fact they had three AFC teams who were interested in Trent months back and those teams were rebuffed by Bruce. He thinks they blew it -- trade market narrowed at the end. He goes out of a scale of 0-10 -- it was a 10 level mistake. 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites

It makes the Trent contract a 1 year deal left, lowering trade value. Smart move by Trent, he was just sitting there waiting until 3:59 pm to make sure he didn't lose that year. Now let's see if he plays, I'm sure you saw the tweets earlier in the week about him playing possum if he had to report. Link to post Share on other sites

He won't sign a LTD with the Skins and neither will Scherff. So we can only use the tag on one of them -- and you don't want to use the tag period. It is mind-blowing how bad Bruce is at his job.

kfrankie Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Well, if Trent really has reported, that tells me that this was (at least in part) about money. I'm probably missing something here, but the only reason he would report would be so that he get credit for playing this year, leaving only 2020 on his deal. If he had failed to report, his contract would extend though 2021 (i.e. it would be as if this year never happened)? So, assuming many different things are true that I don't know are true (hence the word "assume"), this was at least 50% about money, or 75% about medical staff concerns. Or it was "potentially" "probably" about money (25% chance), vs. likely about money (51%). And the other 80% was about pride (40% Bruce Allen, 40% Trent, 60% Dan, 10% Jay). 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Alexa Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 If a player doesn't want to play for you why do you want him in your building and around your team? I would do my best to get value and move on. This just seems like a big ego play that was totally mismanaged by two pathetic people. And why does Allen have control over trades when he has totally failed at this so many times before? The guy is such a loser. Link to post Share on other sites

skins4ever28 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 This is disgusting. Im done. F you bruce, F you dan. I cannot believe this. We wont get anything for Trent now. Miami got freaking 2 firsts for Tunsil and Trents three times the player he was. IF THERE IS ANY MEDIA REPORTS WITH ANY GUTS DO NOT LET BRUCE GET AWAY WITH THIS, ASK THE HARD QUESTIONS STOP THROWING SOFT BALLS THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. IM A LIFELONG FAN, I HAVE A FREAKING TATTOO ON MY FOREARM, BUT I AM SO DISGUSTED WITH THIS OWNER WHO LETS A GM RUN HIS TEAM INTO THE GROUND AND SITS BACK AND LETS IT ALL HAPPEN BECAUSE HE WANTS A PLAYMATE/FRIEND.
