OK... Let the Haynesworth Petition Begin!

Anyone who doesn't want this guy is nuts. Immediate impact on the line. He is the best defensive lineman in football right now. I'd pay an arm and a leg to get this guy in a skin's uniform. Even if we kept the same pass rush as this year, with hanesworth anchoring the middle the sack total would got up exponentially

Anyone who wants this guy is nuts. With the history of FA signings that we have, and players looking at us like the golden goose-get a fat contract then go out and lay an egg; I would keep my arm AND my leg and go get some younger talent, and learn to develop good guys in house.

I keep reading how bad the FO is, because of this bust, or these bad trades, but then free agency appears, and suddenly the best move is grabbing the biggest named player regardless of what the cost. Let's not kid ourselves, if they went and did get Haynesworth, this board would be filled with praise, until the first game he laid an egg, at which point the FO would have been stupid for slamming our salary cap with an expensive and non-producing veteran.

There is no definseive lineman on our roster at his caliber. No one this roster who grow to his talent caliber, He is a franchise caliber talent. That is irrefutable, if it wasn't the case he would not have been on the Titans for so long. You should have a mean streak as a lineman. Most say "he may underachieve" or "he takes plays off" they say that about all Fat players in the NFL. They said the Same about Shaun Rodgers last year and now he looks unstoppable this year.

People don't say Pat Williams or Jamal Williams underachieve. People say Rogers and Haynesworth underachieve until it is time for them to earn a paycheck.
