To top it off, if we continue rebuilding our front office, we'll likely have mostly new scouting and personnel departments next year, further minimizing the likelihood that whomever we select at the pick will ever amount to even being a serviceable backup.
2. It would screw Haynesworth because we'd be trading him to a 3-4 team, and one where he'd likely be benched when he ultimately acted up.
3. It would screw the Patriots because they'd be giving up a pick likely to yield them a starter (far superior coaching staff and personnel department) for a disgruntled player who didnt want to be there and would miss 50% of plays due to being tired or "injured. And the other 50% of the time he'd be giving a half-hearted effort... because, again, he didnt want to be there.
All in all, i think this is one of the best Haynesworth trade ideas i've heard to date. (And Yes, for the record, I do know you were being sarcastic. I just figured i would take it up a notch.)

1) so our new scouting/personnel team will be worse? what would be the point of bringing them in?
2) what problem would he have being DE? you think he'd replace Wilfork? LOL
3) you can't back it up and the stats have been shown to you enough to just make you look plain dumb in this case
