Albert Haynesworth is a Redskin!!!!

[That Guy]

working on numbers now... 32mill is the first year salary and signing bonus, and then 41 - (32 - 1st year salary) in some other guaranteed money. 7 years/100$mill means it'll actually be a bit easier on the 2009 cap then what i originally expected as a straight deal.

I'll need specifics on that non signing bonus guaranteed money to figure out the specifics, but i can assume its not on the 2009 cap and work off that... it just means that the 2010 on numbers could vary a little depending on how exactly that extra guarantee is put in there. (though technically all guaranteed money after the end of cap should count fully in 2009).

I would have liked to seen us go after O Line (J. Saturday possible) and save some of that money.

Saturday is old and already re-signed with Indy. I'll await word of the $$ implications from the usual suspects.

The Washington Redskins have made the biggest splash on the first day of NFL free agency, signing former Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth to a seven-year, $100 million contract.

Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that the deal includes $41 million guaranteed in the first three years, and the maximum value of the deal could be $115 million. According to Schefter, the deal is the richest contract ever given to a player and includes more guaranteed money than any contract in NFL history has ever included.

those numbers sound closer to being right.

ESPN.com, reports the same.

Albert Haynesworth signs 7-year deal with Redskins - ESPN

Vinny was on Mike and Mike ESPN raido to talk about the Big Al Deal! The Dael atrted at 1201 am and was final at 530 am. Haynesworth didn't wanted to get in a bidding war. Still there was six other teams looking at Al and on the phone but in the end he wented with the Skins. Sal Pal and Golic love the move! What I love about big Al is he will keep the other East teams from running up the middle. Haynesworth in the middle of that Titan D averaged less the 100 yards running pergame the last two years! If he can help do that and get a push up the middle that would he worth the cash.

No more Bradon Jacobs running up the middle like last years season opener!

Can't wait to see the Skins play the Raiders this fall!

I like the signing.

It's my guess that the additional $4mil added to the cap went a long way to assist making this deal possible.

Snyder has the money, let him spend it. I just want AH to stay healthy and produce.

What I don't epect from him: 16 sacks ad a performance like that guy in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High". What I do want, eating up double and triple teams and the men around him making plays and swarming.

Be happy.

He should do that and keep teams from running at our middle. It real is run first in the East then pass. Yes the Eagle love to pass but they too would run first if they could. The other thing that Al and Hall should do is shorten the field with turnovers. Give the O more chances! Maybe get some D scores as well!

Like the guy on NFL Network said last night, Tennessee DB's had 16 picks last year. With AH up front, 'Los might even be able to hold onto a couple.

Giants have nothing to worry about, as far as Skins are concerned. Pressure McNabb all day and the game is yours. Very simple.

I dont want to encourage stomping on opposing players heads however if his heels slips in a couple of Dallas games I might be looking for my drink at that moment!!!
