HAYNESWORTH TO HIT THE MARKET
Posted by Mike Florio on February 18, 2009, 11:57 a.m.

If the Tennessee Titans manage to re-sign defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, it won’t happen until after Haynesworth has seen what other teams are willing to pay.

According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network, Haynesworth won’t do a deal with the Titans until after he tests the market.

Schefter says that a “host” of teams are expected to make a play for Haynesworth, one of the top free agents of the 2009 class, and that Haynesworth’s deal could average roughly $12 million per year with guaranteed money in excess of $30 million.

We still believe that the principle of caveat emptor applies here, especially in the wake of last week’s revelation that, four days after being placed on probation, Haynesworth allegedly caused an automobile accident by driving his Ferrari at a high rate of speed.

For more on the concerns teams should have about making a guy who didn’t become a force until he was playing to get paid the highest-paid defensive player in the NFL, here’s a recent thing we did for SportingNews.com.

I found this article to be pretty interesting. It's from National Football Post (although it was linked on CBS Sports), and it goes over the evaluation process for FA O-lineman, and gives a list/synopsis of the players out there.

I just heard the same thing. Kinda reminds me of when I was a little boy and wanted to join the circus.

Do you have a source for Lechler signing?

Well it just goes to show the importance they put on a great kicker. Very smart. Too bad I really wanted him here. Let's go get Hunter

Apparently Peppers has told the Panthers he would only accept a trade to one of four teams. Three are in the NFC, one of which is the Cowcircus, and the other is an unnamed AFC team. Interesting. I wonder who the other NFC teams are....

Pressure on, Panthers limited to four teams on Peppers' trade list - NFL - CBSSports.com Football

Can't be too hard to figure out, who else plays a base 3-4?

Oh yeah. Duh. Green Bay? I'm drawing a blank. Who else in the NFC runs a base 3-4? Seems like it's much more of an AFC thing for some reason.

I'm guessing his teams other than Dallas are Green Bay, Pittsburgh, and New England. San Diego plays 3-4 too right?

MTK · 02-18-2009, 09:47 PM

49ers too I think

44ever · 02-18-2009, 10:50 PM

I would guess he would like to be part of that Pittsburgh D. Id hate to see him wearing a Star
