I’m probably going to be a broken record, but I really feel that Haynes is massively undervalued by the fanbase.
 

As far as I’m concerned, and considering 2022 snap counts, he’s our other starting OLB right now.

I get the same feeling about Haynes as I did about Luvu his first year with us. “This dude is constantly flashing and always around the ball…he just needs more opportunities” - and we see how that worked out for Luvu last season.

Seemed like he had a bright future? Lol, dude was the consensus best non-QB in the draft and taken right after Burrow. He was considered to be Myles Garrett level talented. Pretty sure he was also considered better than the Bosas when he came out.

He’s been a massive bust after being the DROY. He’s been hurt for two years but even when he played 12 games in those 2 years he only had 1.5 sacks and 5 QB hits. I don’t recall what his injuries are but he really dropped in year 2 while starting 9 games.

Washington already declined his 5th year options so they obviously have reservations that he’ll ever reach his potential but I don’t think they’ll trade him for peanuts because he was the #2 pick and has been hurt.

I sure would inquire then. Who knows, maybe we could get him for something less than high cost in terms of draft picks. Worth a shot and if he avoids the injury bug maybe he captures some magic again.
