Re: Albert Haynesworth is a Redskin!!!!
 

I no longer question the FO's number crunchers. They're the best in the business and in Redskins' land, there is no such thing as salary cap hell. I voted "love the player and the money" because of this.

I look at the moves in context- we picked up the best tackle in football and signed a CB (which our coaches seem to think) is going to step into the top slot. Both have prime years left. We shed Springs and Washington (I'll keep my avatar up for a little while longer, in tribute) who can't stay on the field and are way past their golden years.

Why not shake things up in a major way? It's nice to build "the right way", but it's not like we ended the season as an up-and-coming squad full of momentum and youth. The fan base is not patient and our tickets are the highest among professional sports. We expect excellence every season and cannot wait for rebuilding years.

Would you rather have Portis run into Albert twice a season or would you rather have the rest of the division's guards have to deal with him? Turnover city... here we come!

Thank God for Dan Snyder.

Re: Albert Haynesworth is a Redskin!!!!
 

Wow, that's a lot of money. I don't really care about the total amount of the contract but 41 million is a sh*t load of money. My take is he'll be great for at least 2 years, good for 2 more, and OK or injured for 1 year. That defense better be a monster and we better win the line of scrimmage every game.

Watching the presser right now.

Re: Albert Haynesworth is a Redskin!!!!
 

Man Haynesworth is actually a pretty decent speaker. Nothing special but definitely articulate. I wonder how much this press conference is worth in terms of his contract?

Re: Albert Haynesworth is a Redskin!!!!
 

We got a guy who already has stomped on Cowboys so lets hope he can bring what he brought to Tennessee without the unsportsmanlike stuff

Re: Albert Haynesworth is a Redskin!!!!
 

[quote=SmootSmack;530964]Still a little uncertain about how much we'll be able to depend on Haynesworth, but when you think about just from a pure talent level 70% effort and performance out of Haynesworth is probably close to 100% out of Golston.

But this is exactly what Blache wanted, a dominant DT[/quote]

Will he start allowing QB pursuits without a watch for the run first mentality though on downs that appear to be passing ones?

Just watched Haynesworth's presser. I must admit, I'm very impressed.

He did a good job. Addressed the incident with Gurode right away, and got that over and done with. I think this incident and its aftermath made an impact on him and he knows better. He talked about coming in and making plays, be a disruptive force, and making others around him better.

Re: Albert Haynesworth is a Redskin!!!!
 

He commands double teams on every single snap. When have we had a DT like that?

I guess Danny knows how to put asses in the in seats. Whether our Offseason Superbowl victory will equate to anything we'll see this year I guess...
