Albert Haynesworth and Mike Shanahan: An unlikely win-win situation?

Golston is an interior penetrator trying to play the 3-4 scheme, and it's just not working for him. He could play Holliday's role in the 4 man nickel front quite well (and does sometimes), but he's not a two down lineman in this defense.

I am not sure if he is battling an injury that might be effecting his play, but he was terrible against the Lions. I mean really bad.
He was not getting doubled team or anything fancy, he just getting blown out on one on one blocking. Not good.

He was being blown up by the Lions' RG last year as well. Part of the reason Kevin Smith iced that game in 2009.

Rocky McIntosh is a very bad NFL linebacker. Gotta get HB Blades or Perry Riley some looks soon. It would be difficult to be much worse.

I like your consistency. You have been wrong about Al from day one and you are sticking by your story. Don't worry, you will have two games to watch how "out of shape" he is.

I also love how everyone automatically thinks he is gone. His salary is going to be about 5 million next year which is a steal.

People are also forgetting that there is about a 90% chance that there are no OTA's and camps next year when the players are locked out.

So that takes care of most if not all of the Al preseason drama.

I think Haynesworth is gone because we need the picks. While I think it'd be great for him to stay, now that the drama is over and done and he's playing up to his potential, he is marketable. Unless his value drops off a lot, he should be commanding at least two picks if he continues to play the way he has in the past couple of games.

Really man?? Rocky IS too small to play the middle I think he belongs at the OLB spot but HB is terribly small and he is no Fletcher but even having small fletcher hurts us at times. HB is a lifelong backup and special teams assest but Perry I last saw at the Colts game and seems he has to use special teams for more playing time.

Read Dirt's post right above yours.
