King predicts Haynesworth to Redskins

Tampering happens all the time. How else do those 12:01 deals happen when free agency starts? Please. The article about Danny having dinner with an agent is a non-issue.

i assure you, 2010 will be the only year without a cap. it will be back in 2011, which is why we would be wise to refrain from making any huge signings now.

Basically, through the CBA the parties have realized that the goal of the players and the management should be the same—increasing the revenue pie instead of fighting over the existing amount—and the NFL has tailored the CBA to achieve that end.

The NFLPA was rewarded with the concept of Free Agency, whereby players have the freedom to market their skills after a specific period of service. As a system of checks and balances, the owners sought a means of cutting back on the escalation of the players' salaries. This is accomplished by -- you guessed it -- the NFL Salary Cap.

So if the CBA expires, player salaries will escalate faster though player movement between teams will be more limited. The players, like anyone else, will think with their wallets first. Especially now that Gene Upshaw is gone.

hahaha my brother just told me a min ago, exact quote: "how else do you see those 12:05 deals? BFD." . . .

yeah i know its not a big issue, everybody does it but you dont see too many articles like the king one about other owners. i think it gives danny a bad rep at the owners meetings having something like this come out so openly (even though king assumes danny was talking about AH).

sorry, i thought it was worth discussing given all the dead horses lying around here.

go skins!!

Maybe agents and teams can negotiate for a minute, kinda like speed dating. LOL. :laughing-

Well everyone does it and someone has to "prove" or have evidence that would show tampering. No one knows what they were talking about. Which is why I brought up the fact that perhaps Snyder met with him about a player who will be in the draft and the team is inquiring about how he would feel about coming to the Skins. I think it's presumptious to on Kings part to assume it was about Haynesworth. I doubt any team would have a problem with Snyder talking to an agent asking what money figure Haynesworth is looking forward to in order to see if we could be in the ball park come day 1 of free agency. It's illegal to talk contract and fine details. Haynesworth already said he would test the market so I'm betting a lot of other owner's have made inquiries also just to see what he's asking. Doesn't mean we are going to be a player at all.

but....as we all know King is pushing the envelope always to try to fry Snyder. .....and if history repeats itself we all know Snyder will probably try to find a way to get him in. My big question is how will Snyder accomplish this? Who will get let go in order to sign Haynesworth? If we try. Someone mentioned we are 3.3 mill under. We could cut Springs saviing us 6.4 mill. Honestly is that enough for Haynesworth? Call it 6 mill a year? Who else do we let go to sign Hall?

Zorn was and has stated he was satisfied with our O-lines production through the first 8 games and believes our down fall was injuries. He has said we need decent back ups. Perhaps with the moves they have made already picking up some O-lineman and perhaps drafting more he feels we will be fine starting next season with a healthy group of guys. I agree we need to get younger on both sides, I'm just throwing out there the possibility Snyder is looking to fix any D-line problems with free agents and go after O-lineman in the draft.

I know its Profootballtalk.com but wow is all I can say if this happens. Looks like we think the cap will be gone.

Someone made a good post earlier in which they said Snyder was doing the agent a favor by mtg. w/him. Drives AH's price up.

This may be rumor derived from that mtg. Reminds me of when Samari Rolle's agent said the skins were going to sign him in 05 w/15 mil guaranteed. Didn't happen.

I actually remember that. Its a possibility. Again profootballtalk is not the most reliable source. They might just be putting pressure on the Titans.

Does this mean no D. Hall? What about Canty? Since we're turning into fantasy football, how 'bout this front seven:

D-Line: Carter, Haynesworth, Monty/Golston, Canty
LBs: J.Taylor, Fletch, Rocky
