tmandoug1 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 If there is a new GM and head coach on Monday Trent will retire a Redskin......bank it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartyPosse Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 With the way the team has played the last few weeks, if we find a competent DC, grab Chase Young and manage to convince Trent to return, could this team be a fringe contender next year?

That will depend on Haskins growth, health of our players and the defense. That being said, in the NFC East I think I'd answer yes to your question.

For one, most teams don't have rookie QB's who we don't know how good they will be. Also, there are only 4 teams in the NFC East. The injury part I agree with, but Haskins will need to be good for the Skins to be contenders. And the defense needs to be vastly improved.

Est.1974 Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I'd say the odds currently favour him returning to the team and getting a couple of years extended onto his current contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say yes, but, and its a huge BUT, it really depends on the development of Haskins and if we can get some immediate improvement on defense.

I'd say both Trent and Scherff are heading for new deals at the Redskins. Personally I would prefer that we trade Trent, but it may well be his trade value has diminished to the point his remaining value to us is greater.

@DCGoldPants Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I wouldn't keep Trent. I think he lied about the timeline around his tumor and he continues to not take responsibility for things in his life. No idea on what his value is or what other teams think. I'm sure his comments and then the NFLPA backing off so quickly has made some suspicious. Get the best pick you can for him and move on. I want guys who don't skip the offseason programs and mini-camps. Guys who want to be in Ashburn working out as much as the CBA allows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nonniey Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Well at this point (thanks to Allen), I think the best value to be had is if he returns and if we can't get him to return painting the picture of a possible return should at least help his trade value a little bit.

If Penn retires we just don't have the bodies at Tackle. Chase Young is our first pick. If we use our 3rd round pick on a Tackle there is no guarantee you get a player ready and we were not able to use that pick on an OLB or CB.

Even if they get everything right this offseason, it's not a quick fix. Letting Trent come and go whenever he pleases isn't fixing the culture issues there. There might be some tackles in FA like a Conklin. You might roll with Christian next year. Maybe you trade Trent to get another day 2 pick and use that for a rookie? https://walterfootball.com/draft2020OT.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartyPosse Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I would be less concerned about Trent coming back if we resigned flowers and Scherff. if we can get a second for Trent then that pick should be reserved strictly for his replacement.

Tay Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Trent "liked" the tweet from Dwayne. Maybe there's a chance he'll be back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crabbypatty Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 So now his issue was the business side. I thought before it was strictly medical? Whatever, I'd trade him in a heartbeat. Good or not good, he's dead weight as far as I'm concerned. The team can lose double digits games with or without him as had been proven multiple times. Let him walk, get a youngster in his place.. someone not makes Christian. That dude is a marshmallow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariusVT Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Personally I'd love to see both Trent and Brandon back. Not having to rebuild almost the entire offensive line this off-season would be fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drowland Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Someone on the Junkies this morning, Hoffman maybe, said the relationship between Trent and Dan soured after he returned to the team. Something along the lines of Dan seemed more focused on trying to get Trent to suit up again for the team and not focused on understanding what Trent went through. they gave it a slim chance he plays again here.

Mania Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 definitely rumors he could be coming back since Bruce Allen is out. That was his big reason for wanting out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evmiii Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Everybody, except perhaps the owner, that Trent has a problem will most likely be gone. I think if the day after Ron gets the job he reaches out to Trent he'll start at LT for the Redskins on opening day. If Ron doesn't get a warm fuzzy, trade him for whatever you can get for him. Like Trent says, it's just business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
