It will go down as an infamously terrible move because we walked away from the transaction one year later poorer than we would have otherwise been, having lost picks without gaining anything in return.
If Haynesworth is traded for a second round pick or whatever, we will have gained draft picks, as Synder will have essentially bought whatever pick we get for 28 million dollars or however much we've paid Al to date. Maybe you don't like this if you are Snyder's financial adviser, but as a fan I don't see how you can be anything other than happy that we are gaining a high draft choice we wouldn't have otherwise had.

Except that, most likely, the draft pick isn't going to produce like Al.
