1. What is going to happen with Trent Williams?

The Trent Williams conundrum is an everlasting journey that should have been addressed last season, but because of the old regime’s poor judgement and stubbornness, the Redskins are still having to deal with this situation. Since it was not answered last season, this becomes the first of multiple questions on the offensive line Ron Rivera and the Redskins must quickly find an answer to, so the they can focus on their offensive line and figure out who will be their starting left tackle come game day.

While the Redskins may want to push the situation as far as they can, with the hopes that Williams may want to come back, Williams and his agent seem content that they are not open to returning to Washington. The best option for both sides seems to be a trade that both sides can agree with.

The Redskins organization has been adamant that they will not trade Williams for nothing and expect to get a fair value for him, which many think is valued at a second-round pick. Williams’ agent recently released a statement saying they have found trade partners for Williams, but that the Redskins are not giving them any leeway. Whether this situation is the fault of the Redskins organization or Williams’ camp, it is a situation that needs to be addressed before the draft.
