Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

Just announced. Can't say I'm surprised. Haynesworth has never taken his football career seriously, and he is a huge waste of talent.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

I said this on another thread, hopefully this is the last Haynesworth thread ever:

No surprise here, I am surprised they haven't released Ochocinco as well. I'm sure some people will get a boner about this. In reality, this is a reminder of how much of a mistake was to sign this guy, given him a ton of money, and keep him for a season too long.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

That expirement in NE lasted a lot longer than I thought it would actually.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

I think a few of us predicted he wouldn't last the entire season there. Next stop, Tennessee.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

Eagles will probably sign him. They desperately need a disruptive force up the middle. Hopefully a crappier team then us claims him.

Whenever you hear anyone bash Allen & Shanny's trade for McNabb, realize that they at least made some lemonade on this one - 5th round pick.

Weren't they offered a 3rd rounder for him though? In the end this team has turned $40 mil, a 2nd rounder, and a 4th rounder into two 6th rounders and a 5th rounder.

I'm reporting that reporters will start speculating the Eagles interest in Albert Haynesworth all because he's friendly with Howard Mudd.

I used to feel that way, but honestly i dont think it matters anymore. Even reuniting with his coach isnt going to do anything. Haynesworth just doesnt really care about football anymore, he no longer has a drive to play. If anything i think it will cause more problems for the eagles. More egos more problems.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

hahahaa...yes. I feel some what better about football this week!

That was the word earlier last season. They tried to make it work, granted opinions differ on that, but when it was clear he wasn't gonna play for us, they got something for him.

My main point is that Allen & Shanny would've never been part of that signing, but they did what they could to move on.

Iggles are pretty far down the line on waiver wire right? Are waiver claims decided by draft order or by current record?

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

[quote=Chico23231;857156]Dont want to see him on the Eagles[/quote]

Speaking of the Iggles, I think we may have dodged the bullet a bit by not signing Cullen Jenkins. I was watching the game last night and they could not generate much of a pass rush against a so-so offensive line.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

Fat Albert is a lousy bum and I agree he doesn't deserve another thread beyond this one.

No one is going to claim him, unless they want to spend 700K+.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

I would be a little surprised if a team signed him.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

He's out of shape, he constantly injured and he's really only had a couple of dominant seasons. One of the most overrated players ever. Ocho Cinco is probably next.

Absolutely!!! Talent and physical ability were there but he's among the laziest ever to put on pads.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

yup, chad is probably looking over his shoulder.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

We should sign him for $41 mil.

Well the reason he got cut was because of his attitude. I'm sure the times he didn't start this year was because of that. I was watching the Pats/Giants game and he actually looked okay.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

Frankly, he lasted about a month longer than I expected he would in New England...

That was his final play as a Patriot.

They are not, but they don't keep players around to teach them a lesson.

I was thinking Stallworth could fit well up there when we cut him

I said and still think that Cullen Jenkins was way overrated as a FA. Just wanted to pat myself on the back....

They don't ever overpay for risky players, which I guess is like not really making a personnel mistake. Fat Albert cost them next to nothing and wasn't a distraction so the franchise "won."

The Pats problem is their defense, it seems that Tom Brady and the offense cannot carry the entire team. Their DBs are awful, their MLB is out with an injury, they have not run or pass defense whatsoever. As I said, the Pats have bigger problems than AH.

Its based off of current record so they arnt that far down the list, but i honestly doubt anyone will claim him. Too big of a contract (for how hes played the last 3 years) and viewed as a head case, I think any team that is interested would want to have detailed conversations with him before taking a chance with him. I do think that he will sign on with another team and the eagles and tenn are probably at the top of his list, although he may not be at the top of theirs.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

Eagles or Raiders.

I completely agree, but thats irrelevent to them seeing Stallworth as an upgrade over Ochocinco for them (purely my speculation). Theres nothing they can really do about there defense at this point but it doesnt mean they should just forget about fixing their other problems.

Re: Patriots Waive Haynesworth
 

You know i could honestly see him just retiring.

Bill Belicheck is suffering from Brian Billick Syndrome.

- A former genius coordinator who serves as a great head coach but struggles to get the side of the ball he specializes in to work up to his standards. Example, Brian Billick was a top notch offensive coordinator in Minnesota but struggled to get the Ravens in the top half of the league when it came to offense.

Shanahan has a little of this going on right now with a strong defense and an anemic offense.
