King predicts Haynesworth to Redskins

There's no long line waiting to pry Albert Haynesworth from the Titans.

In fact, Washington might be the logical landing spot. Hmmmm. I wonder why Redskins owner Dan Snyder was having dinner with the agent for Haynesworth, Chad Speck, at Morton's here Saturday night. I'm sure they were just talking about how it was colder here than at the Arctic Circle. But I kept asking all weekend: "Who wants Haynesworth -- or, more appropriately, who's going to pony up for him?'' And I got the old "it only takes one'' answer a few times. But one coach told me the smartest thing, and this was a coach who has some interest in getting Haynesworth at the right price, which is about half of what Haynesworth is hoping to get. "Everybody I've asked this weekend says, 'We're out of that,' or 'I don't think you'll see us involved in Haynesworth.' ''

I know there is a lot of split opinions on here about Haynesworth, is he a pocket collapsing DT we've all been craving or is he playing for a pay day and now will get fat and lazy?

He's much better than any DT we have now, even when he's not playing for a contract. He's also intimidating and we could use a badass on defense.

Defense wins championships.

Given the probability that the salary cap era is coming to a close, I would pay ANY PRICE to get Albert Haynesworth.

AMEN.

I didn't realize the cap was permanently going away...if that's the case shine up another Lombardi Trophy for the Redskins!! LOL.

HAIL!

Had a feeling this rumor might pop up soon

Still, it's a bit presumptious (sp?) to think just because Snyder and Speck are having dinner they must be talking about Haynesworth. Maybe they were just having dinner. Maybe they were talking about another one of Speck's clients, Malcolm Kelly.

Peter King sounds like your typical Snyder basher with this article. Man, what have the Redskins done to this guy?

I'm really on the fence with Haynesworth. The guy is a monster no doubt, I'm just scared that once he has a fat new deal in place he might get lazy.

Sure, sure. Malcolm Kelly. That must have been it. No mention at all of Haynesworth.

NOT! You're way too smart to believe that. Of course they were talking about Haynesworth!
