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.
