I mean the only big time free agent we got this past season, came from a team that went 1-15 last season and was getting a bit old (Jason Taylor). Haynesworth is a dominant DT in a good team with a dominant defense. I mean if he were to come here and be a bust then well that's just bad luck or our coaching sucks. But this would be a good football move to get a strong DT that can create a good pass rush and disrupt the opponents running play.

He will be 28 by the time next season starts. If he was a middle market player (e.g., $5-10M signing bonus), I'd be all for signing the guy. However, I don't think you pay a 28 year old with questionable work habits and character a $20M+ signing bonus. There's WAY too much downside.
