Redskins On the Verge of Signing DT Haynesworth

It has been reported by Lance Zierlein and Sportingnews.com that the Redskins are going to sign free agent defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth. Instead of re-signing with the Titans, Haynesworth decided he would like to test the Free Agent market for this first time in his career.

While Haynesworth is a dominating player, he has never completed a full NFL schedule and he does not play every down. If the Redskins are going to backup the Brinks truck in Albert's driveway, he better not have a Jason Taylor type year.

I am VERY mixed on this decision to purse Haynesworth knowing that he has risks of character and injury. At least we know he hates the Cowboys as he has already face stomped their center a few seasons back. Albert in burgundy and gold? Sources say it is virtually a lock. With all of this said, I think Danny Snyder is planning on the NFL to have an uncapped year because of the expiring deal with the owners and NFLPA.

Well, at least Haynesworth is still fairly young and has a good 5 years at least left in him. Let's see how this plays out after the FA period begins.....
