Scherff is 28 not 25.
He’s not that young and has missed time.

That's simply not true. He was versatile enough to move to the RG position as Moses began to catch on. He would never have been the draft pick had we known Moses would turn out to be serviceable at RT.Scherff is not an NFL tackle. They tried him at RT and Morgan Moses beat him out for the position.
The deal for TW should not be barn busting, and should be short with the guarantee up front so we can dump him in a couple years. He should just be a stop gap at this point.I wonder about the wisdom of having so much cap tied up in two OL if you were to ink deals for Williams and Scherff. I know you can get creative in writing these deals, but just want us to be smart about this.

Nobody's giving the Redskins that much draft capital for a LT entering the twilight of his career.
I’m fatigued with this guy. That’s what this whole thing has been about from day 1.
I feel like there was probably a legit health issue there with the cancer scare. That kind of thing is kinda hard to fake and no doubt the team will want to review all the records on Trent's treatment. So I don't think it started as a money grab.
Having said that, I think Trent and his agent have looked at this situation and decided that there is an opportunity here - turning it into a money grab or a way to force his way out of Washington and onto a team with a real chance at a title. Honestly, I am not sure which. I also have no doubt that Trent wants to recoup the money he lost last year in the holdout - probably blaming the team and feeling like they should have to pay.
I am tired enough of the situation to trade him between now and the draft. There has got to be a team out there who thinks that with a proven All Pro LT they have a real shot at a Super Bowl and because of that are willing to part with some quality draft picks. Not saying a 1st rounder but maybe a 2 this year and a 5 or 6 this year and a conditional 3 to 5 pick next year.
