Haynesworth to the Patriots for a 5th rounder.

Re: Haynesworth to the Patriots for a 5th rounder.

I sincerely hope this is the last Haynesworth thread. I'm both sick and tired of talking about this guy.

Good luck with that. Not long ago I saw a Jason Campbell thread. I'm telling you, some fans are like obsessive girlfriends, they just won't let go.

This has disaster written all over it. He's just not the type of guy for the New England culture. But I guess they said that about Randy Moss and a few others. Should be interesting.

I keep repeating this, but the Patriots are not playing the 3-4 that much and last season they play a significant amount of 4-3. They've been losing their 3-4 personnel. Darth Hoody is a guru at defensive scheming and has the tendency to adjusting his scheme to player's strengths. AH aside, I wouldn't be surprise if this season they go completely 4-3.

I would be curious to know if there was a better offer from the Eagles, if there was an offer at all.

I honestly don't know if there ever was an offer for AH, but some here and some (so I thought) rumors were, he would be worth about a 4th or 5th round draft pick. Now the Eagles knew MS was not going to trade with them, so what was to stop them from making a deal with the Patriots for a 4th round draft pick. The Patriots play along as long as they can get less then a 4th for AH.

I'll agree it's silly, AH should be happy he was traded to an every year contender. But... I was just asking. I would have prefered we trade him to the Eagles for the 4th vs. to the Patriots for a 5th only to have him end up with the Eagles anyway.

I doubt BB is going to trade him only to gain a 4th in return, after they just gave up a 5th.

I think for the small price they paid they are willing to roll the dice and see what they have in him. It's a low risk/high reward situation.

Ok, maybe those of you who don't want to hear or see anything more about AH should avoid this thread then. right? Someone else started it. All I did was ask a question. Trust me I'm estatic he's gone.

Good bye you fat worthless POS. Ive always kinda liked NE and i thank them so much for taking wrthless off our hands but i hope the get their assess handed to them on defense!!!

A well organized, well coached winning team can do wonders sometimes for disenchanted players. It will only take a minute for AH to realize he won't become a distraction in NE the way he did here. + He won't be asked to play the NT position, they have one of the best in the business already.

Sooo true.

Vinny Cerrato says he’d sign Haynesworth again
By Dan Steinberg


I think maybe we can all agree that Albert Haynesworth’s tenure in Washington wasn’t the most successful Washington tenure in the history of Washington tenures. Like, William Henry Harrison probably had a more successful Washington tenure. Sharon Pratt Kelly had a way more successful Washington tenure. Mike Bibby and Žydrūnas Ilgauskas had more successful Washington tenures.

So, while it might be hard to admit, if you were one of the guys who helped bring Haynesworth to Washington, maybe you could come out and say that it was a mistake, one that would not be repeated.

Or not.

“What I want to know is after all that's gone down in Washington, if Cerrato has buyer’s remorse,” CBS Sports’s Clark Judge wrote this week.

“You know what I mean. After the body blows he absorbed ... and continues to absorb ... for signing Haynesworth, would he sign him again if the situation were the same?

Cerrato didn’t flinch.

‘If the Redskins were still playing a 4-3 I would,’ he said. ‘Under the circumstances, it made sense. But if I was running a strict 3-4, absolutely not.’ ”

Cerrato also said that the Redskins’ defensive struggles “changed when Albert was there,” and that “in his first year, he did what he was supposed to do.”

So I guess in a calm and sober analysis of the facts, maybe you do have to admit that hahahahahaha hahahahahahaha hahahahahaha hahahahahahaha hahahahahaha hahahahahah ahahahahahaha hold me someone hold me ahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Smoot, why does ESPN (or any other press) allow this idiot on the air? I've always wanted to ask this since I've seen him on during draft and other articles in reference to him. Can't you pull some strings and just blackball this idiot?

@NCSkins = Haynesworth coming off the line.

Dirtbag59 = Sapp coming off the line.
