re: Haynesworth Missing From Redskins Offseason Workouts

I don't get this... I know why a normal Tackle in the 4-3 wouldn't like to change to a 3-4 NT because it's going to hurt his stats and might cost him his big cheque and new contract..... But first Albert already got his big cheque so what he's scared of, man this dude is a crying old baby and last time I checked NT are making lots of money now with the NFL turning into a 3-4 league.... I just don't get why he's making such a big deal of this worst case scenario things don't work he still gets 40 mill and moves to a team that plays the 4-3 where he's good and gets another 30 mill

When has he cried about anything? Jason Reid has made a big deal over this, Phat Albert hasn't said a word.

They signed Kemo to be the NT so that things work. The earliest he is going anywhere would be after 2011 (and I don't see that happening).

im not worried about AH leaving after the first day. i thought his impact on games when he was in there was something we havent had in a long time at the DT spot. i got an AH jersey, etc so im a fan of the man...

but this 22 milion dollar signing bonus due to him in 2 weeks really has me interested, has me interested since teh day it was announced. ive never heard anything like this. i understand it was done to greatly lessen the cap ramifications of his contract but . .

i am worried that the skins may have set themselves up to be played by AH and his agent. after the bulk of this guaranteed money is given in 2 weeks, what is going to happen? what is going to happen after this season? what if this season is a losing one and AH doesnt like the 3-4?

AH holds all the cards and leverage.

A one time payment of a 22 million dollar signing bonus is unprecendented in this league.

+

AH, while a great player, seems to be your protypical modern athlete.

= potential big problems.

this is much to do about nothing right now, but it could be the beginning of the end.

with all that said, its just a week of voluntary work outs. for the moment.
