I agree.

This just in from Redskins Park - another restructured deal for a 30+ year old player. Grrrr.

So what do you think this means? Doesn't another restructured deal indicate a big move in the near future?

If its true then its more proof that they are'nt going after HWorth. But rather making more space to aquire more guy(s) like Canty, Hall ect... IMO

I have a better answer, the Redskins are in cap hell and need to do this.

I see what youre saying, but doesn't a lot of restructered deals mean more cap hell in the future? I'm just asking, I really don't know.

Well, restructuring a deal helps with the immediate issue of being under the cap and true it hurts further down the road. However, with the possibility of the demise of the salary cap, there may not be any repercussions at all. Although you may want to check out some of the posts by Schneed on this issue.

44ever: My answers are always better. LOL. :smashfrea

BTW, where's SmootSmack when we need him, we need some type of inside info about this Haynesworth rumor.

Well here's the latest that I've heard. It's looking good...or not so good, depending on whether you want Haynesworth or not. I'd put it at around 85% right now that he'll be a Redskin on Saturday. Not too surprising, a lot of people have been testing the waters of this marriage from both camps since Cerrato and Campbell were down at the Senior Bowl. As far as numbers, well I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that he was looking for a minimum of $35 million guaranteed and the rumor is he could get exactly that. As far as the $100 million, I haven't heard anything about that. More like 6 years/$80 million. This won't affect the Hall negotiations from what I've heard but may coincide with Springs and one other veteran (no clue who) being let go this weekend. I think the $100 million must be considering player and team bonuses that could be added on (such as: If Albert Haynesworth is Super Bowl MVP...)

Anyway that's what I know as of right now, but it's only Tuesday

Thats not a better answer but it sure is a obvious one.
