Agreed. And wouldn't surprise me at all if the rumors were to motivate AH, and now Shanahan got word to Schefter that this is the real scoop. Yeah, it's all cloak and dagger intrigue, but it is interesting that this comes out after the report that AH will be at the April sessions. All in all, I imagine media leaks are only one very small tool MS uses, but it's what is most visible.

I agree with those who say that Schefter is more reliable.

However, notice that this means that we haven't tried to trade AH for the last week. That's not a big deal. Tomorrow may be different.

I think you are speculating as much as Florio and LaCanfora have. I do believe anyone can be traded, but I don't believe the drama that these two have overhyped (you can throw in f'ing Andy Pollin on that one too).

Re: Haynesworth back to the Titans?
 

^ I didn't mean to speculate. I'm not saying we are trying to trade AH and I agree that others like Florio have created drama where drama perhaps does not exist.

Still, "They haven't tried to trade AH for one whole week" is not a very strong statement.

Me too. I believe it.

The media LOVES to dump on our team and Haynesworth because we spent to much for him. They'll make up anything to make us look bad.

I think it was money well spent...he made a huge difference on our defense. We needed sacks...he made them possible. Doubled our sack rate.

His performance doesn't merit being unloaded after one year. He did exactly what we expected.

So he had a spat with Zorn...many players did late in that debacle. He's gone now. Shanahan will keep him in check.

Re: Haynesworth back to the Titans?
 

With Haynesworth on our defense, our team went from 8-8 to 4-12. A DT is helpful, but not a guy who can turn a whole team around. Now a QB on the other hand is. If we can trade Haynesworth for picks and players to protect McNabb and give him more weapons, THAT will actually make a difference.

Also, don't forget Jay Glazer. These 2 I believe.

I agree. And, as I said in another thread, the fact that Schefter - the person closest to Shanahan - is the only one disputing the report is noteworthy. Its blatantly obvious to me that Schefter is only reporting what Shanahan wants to report to drive up Haynesworth value and make him help us facilitate a trade. I'm 100% confident that Haynesworth is on the market and will be traded if we can get a starting offensive linemen and/or experienced 3-4 front7 players and/or draft picks.

Re: Haynesworth back to the Titans?
 

Id move him for a late first and 4th. Nothing less. I really want him to stay here and dominate tho.

Now you are taking this in a direction in which I did not go. All that I was saying is that the information we have is ambiguous, weak, and murky.

I never said you did. I said I agreed with what you said. Then I added my own interpretation.

When it comes to a Mike S. team, Schefter's insight is gospel.

This is very good news in my opinion.

well he was due his 21m on the 1st which is why they were more willing to ship him before then
