Also, Eagles have placed the franchise tag on DeSean Jackson

From that article:

9. Albert Haynesworth

(US PRESSWIRE) Breakdown: Haynesworth makes the list on reputation alone. And we mean his pre-Redskins reputation, when Jim Washburn got the most out of the man now known as one of the biggest free-agent busts in recent years. Not even Bill Belichick could revive Haynesworth's career, cutting him midway through last season.

The Bucs signed him only to release him a few weeks ago. Maybe his career is over, but then again, coaches and GMs are seduced by potential. And Haynesworth certainly has plenty of that.

Possible landing spots: Realistically, Haynesworth's probably done. That said, we wouldn't be shocked if the Redskins signed him to another $100 million deal.


Really? Well the media ever give up on the BS, do they not see a new sheriff in town?

The media will stop associating us with big name free agents when Dan Snyder no longer owns the Redskins, and we have a decade of cheap frugality under a new owner. Only then will it become tired to associate us with big name free agents. But it will still be mentioned in history, as we have become the team most commonly associated with trying to build through free agency.

Yeah, just look at Smoot, he just keeps starting QB threads over and over, then grabs this link from someone else (good job CB) and starts another thread of someone else's info. Never an original idea there!

Relax,it will take some time to change what DS and VC did to the Redskins over the last 2 decades,simple winning will stop all of it.
