Haynesworth fails conditioning test

AH is at least in camp. Revis is holding out when he still has 3 years left on his deal. Get your butt in camp and work something out. Expecting Asomugha type money is absolutely insane.

Revis is the bigger loser he is holding out, AH is there and would practice expect he can't pass MS's dog house test.

A deal he held out to get. Still, I think he's less of a distraction in the sense that players tend to understand and respect other players needing to handle their business which ultimately can positively (depending on the result) impact all players.

Harder to accept is a player saying I'm going to work out on my own all spring to make sure I'm ready to go...and then he's not ready. When other guys didn't need to be there but chose to be Haynesworth was "working out on his own." Which is fine, but if you're going to do that you better damn well be ready first day of training camp. Not to mention he initially said he'll be there for the mandatory minicamp but then said no he needed more time on his own.

In the end, neither is a big deal really. Though I can see the Revis situation lasting much longer and potentially into the regular season.

I have always been of the opinion that teams should be allowed to work out free agents before they are signed. Otherwise it's just sight on seeing without knowing the true condition of the athlete.

Had the Redskins insisted on Haynesworth going through a simular type exam last year before they signed him, or even prior to the beginning of training camp, it's doubtful he would have been able to pass it. Cerrato's philosophy of once you get them to come in, don't let them go without their signature did not pay dividens in this case.

In Revis's case it's obvious how highly the Jets think of his abilities, it's also obvious he's taking advantage of their feelings. To further stroke Revis' feel-good, Ryan has gone on record in saying he will be in the starting line-up if he signs the day before the opener.......wrong!!

this is a good sight i would think:

Apparently AH was helping Jeremy Jarmon

Yeah Ryan's comments yesterday only gave the Revis camp more leverage.

Hard Knocks is going to be great with this drama!

It's a matter of priorities. Right now with all the moves the Jets have made they have a chance to be a contender for a long time. The thing is that the salary cap seems very likely to come back. The Jet's hesitation to give Revis a Nnamdi type deal is a sign of such a possibility. Right now they're looking at paying Cromartie, Mangold, and Holmes and all 3 will command large salaries.

So in the end Revis has to decide. Does he want to be the highest paid corner on an average team that might make the playoffs (read: trade or free agent) or does he want to be a well paid player on a contender. We'll see where his priorities line up.

For guy who is perceived to not wanna be here, he sure came early.

Read the article on Redskins.com about Jarmon at DE. Sounds like he could be our (bigger) version of Elvis Dumervil.
