Can I quote from the article linked.
Quote:
Exhausted by the distraction and lack of effort from Albert Haynesworth, the Washington Redskins have once again gauged trade interest in the defensive tackle from his former team, the Tennessee Titans, according to team sources.
It is at least the second occasion the Redskins have had discussions regarding Haynesworth with the Titans since Mike Shanahan was named Washington's coach in January.
The Titans definitely would welcome back Haynesworth, a team source said, but maintained that the Redskins' asking price was still too high. The Redskins are believed to want at least two draft picks for Haynesworth.
A Redskins spokesman said he was unaware of any trade discussions involving Haynesworth but sources say the dialogue occurred over the weekend.

The Redskins aren't saying squat. The press has their antennae up for any news. To say we gauged interest means that we asked what they would trade him for. They gave a number, it was still not enough, so be it. He will be here, and still, I say, once the season starts, and he gets to play 50-75% of the defensive snaps, this will be a non-issue. Shanahan certainly wouldn't mind getting rid of him, and he probably says to BA hey any value out there yet. When BA says not enough, MS and Haslett just need to put their coaching hats on and get AH out there making plays.
Regardless, this will be a media fest every week, as sources, leaks, and everything else throws fodder to the fire.
