My gut tells me Goodell is playing nice with the NFLPA for now. The NFLPA is going to make public threats etc... and Goodell knows that. When the day comes that the NFLPA decides to take this higher is when Goodell will call DeMaurice Smith and whisper to him "shut it down now or you will have more than 4 suspensions to deal with, I am sitting on a Pandora's Box of evidence consisting of testimony, emails, and a whole slew of crap the "FBI" uncovered." "What I have will not only shed light on many more players, but will also look good in court as defense against concussion suits. It will show the players had a rogue (non sanctioned) program that hurt other players intentionally, thus freeing the league from any culpability".

You might be right about GW. That makes sense. But the rest, as to GW knows something damning, doesn't follow Godells actions.
He would have memo'd Benson,SP,Vit,Vilma,Smith to shut up or it will get worse, and hasn't . Godell does not have anything, makes way more sense. A few pp slides,couple emails and
GW is his only witness that anything occurred at all, is why he's in a box.
