Redskins and Titans talking trade again on Albert Haynesworth

The Jackson thing though just seems like it would fit. PFT has him going to either the vikings or here...but then again, any article referencing either a trade or signing of a WR has the redskins peppered in there somewhere so you can never really take too much stock in that. Regardless, it all seems to make sense given the Snyder can afford what VJ is asking for and Shanny's strong need for solid WRs.

PFT had TJ Housh going to Minnesota or us and both said they didn't even look into it.

I think that if we were making a move for VJ it would've happened. If we wanted to rid ourselves of Haynesworth we'd have already done it (unless whatever we had going on with Tenn, others is left on the table after the game to be accepted barring injury). I mean I guess there's time to wait on VJ due to his suspension but figured we would've put him in the offseason program earlier on, unless SD is much more willing to cut their losses now.

And I guess you are Bruce Allen?

its just seems a bit strange given that an unnamed team made a bid for Jackson a week or two ago and the chargers where unhappy with the compensation and now Shanny and Allen are furiously trying to deal Haynesworth for a second round pick.

Can't say I'd be terribly upset with that if thats the outcome.

Does AH want to play for the Redskins is the question? If he dosen't should the Redskins try to accomodate him with a trade for both parties? Would a AH that does not want to play for the Redskins go out on Sundays and give a 100% on the field? A professional would do that but I think we have come to learn that AH is not a professional by the way he handled the OTA's situation and complaining about playing in a 3-4 defense.
If AH does want to play here in Washington he should come out with a public statement saying he wants to stay here. I think as fans we rather here it from the player or coaches mouth then some unnamed source.

For some reason I give Reid more credit than JLC. JLC made his name on doing his best to humiliate the Redskins. I don't get the sense that Reid is ready to stoop that low yet.

I may be wrong but I am 100% convinced that someone in the organization is feeding Reid prepared information.

This whole thing was not a smokescreen at all. Zero chance. If it was, they would have backed Al the second the rumors came out, not 2 or 3 days later. Anyway, I am glad Al has at least one game to show his value.

No matter what people say, he was dominant at several points in the pre-season. Even in the Cardinals game he embarrassed Faneca who is a Hall of Famer.

I am just glad that I can think about Dallas for a few days. Let the soap opera continue on Monday (unless we win of course).

Btw. The 3-4 is a huge risk this year and especially against Dallas this week. I said months ago that we do not have the linebackers to run it effectively and I still believe that. Carter has no effective role in this defense, he cannot cover a tight end, runningback or fullback and that isn't changing. This would be a great game to unleash Carter on their right tackle. Blades or Lorenzo can't cover either and it isn't Rocky or Fletcher's strength. We have no one except a corner or possibly Landry who can slow down Witten and that is going to be painful on Sunday night. We need to play enough 4-3 to slow down the running game and hope that we get some turnovers. If we don't win the turnover battle, I don't see how we can win if we play predominantly 3-4.

We need a big game out of the D because Dallas' D is going to be tough. T. Williams is going to need help all night against Ware and I am hoping Rabach plays out of his mind.

Where are you getting all of this Jason Reid has reported us wanting to trade for a player and then it got done?

an N.O. newspaper and either Schefter or Glazer reported on it.. Reid just reported on their reports

even HAD he been the one to break it.. how is 1 even close to a track record?

That's true, but I generally trust Reid's reporting. If he is rereporting something, I would imagine it is still throughly vetted...or at least I would hope.

While, one player may not be a track record, I am still sticking with my conspiracy theory...though its probably wrong

[tryfuhl]

If he's re-reporting it's already happened. I do that on my Twitter all of the time.

Now how the hell does anyone know he is gone by Monday and VJ arrives later that afternoon? Is this how it will go down? You got the inside info bud? BTW welcome to the board.

Let me guess- extremeskins is down and you couldn't wait to rumor monger so you opened an account here? Having class with his niece doesn't qualify you for jack.

I heard that Jack was a nice young gentleman, but doesn't swing that way.

Wow! That part was a joke, but I figured that was evident...the holiday inn comment guy got it as a joke.

It's a prediction, I called it a 'conspiracy theory' enough to make that point. But, apparently predictions aren't accepted on this board... Someone should tell the guy who is predicting the Skins to go 14-2 in his sig.

I don't really ever look at extremeskins so I didn't realize, but if that's the case, i'll keep that in mind when I post. Thank for the welcome!
