Obligatory "Do We Sign This Released Player?" Thread: Albert Haynesworth

[SOJA]

NE runs a 3-4 like the Skins, correct?

actually I learned the other day they actually run a hybrid defense that has a lot of 4-3 looks as well

Rodeo "it's okay that ya quit on us. You were just misused and misunderstood. Don't let anyone question your work ethic for quiting on us."

You seem to be misunderstanding my point. The man's coach says he worked hard. It's only misinformed outsiders who seem to share your opinion.

LMFAO I never saw Haynesworth give up in playoff game or when a team needed a win. The man was up front to the Redskins that he want to play UT not NT. Peppers was no different the last few years here only he was content on giving up on every game that was not on prime time. Even then he would give up in the playoffs and just disappear.

Change can have a big effect on players. Let the man pass threw wavers, then if he wants to come here let him... End of story.

So he only shows up in playoff games? Why bring him here then? No playoffs this year for us. And what does 2008 have to do with 2009, 2010, 2011. And I guess the folks that saw the tape of him quitting have no clue what are talking about. None of his teammates go to bat for him like Peppers' did. Not a single one. And quit comparing the 2, bc again Albert has been out of loop for 3 seasons. But i guess It's not Albert's fault that he hasnt done poo in almost 3 years.

That is complete bullpoo. He's a grown ass man

Had enough of this waste of space for one night. Got shut to do in the morning

Prince Albert is a bum. He aint coming here. Get over it.

What's the worse case scenario? He comes here and Rivera puts a foot in his ass and then he gets cut. What is he going to do, make us lose games on the defense? Best case scenario is that he is a larger immovable force as a DT and actually fills his gap in the 4-3. He might actually be more motivated and resurrect his career. It's a win win in my book. Nothing to lose imho.

I'm just comparing two players that are very much the same. Yet you seem to ignore that peppers was the same type player and it worked out fo.r him. Also Beason called peppers out publicly and was punished for it so other players had no choice but to stick up for him

There are a lot of players in that do the same and nothing much is said about.

Bring him in. I don't know how the contract works with him being on waivers, but I think it's a low risk move. If he sucks, so what? DT been a weakness all season

oh, so now you are telling me what happened in washington, didn't happen.

Okay, whatever dude.

Tip: it's pretty easy to be observant. Try it some time.

That's my point. Is he better than 2 rookie DTs? Most likely. In 2008 Haynesworth had 8.5 sacks and 51 tackles in 14 games played. The man was a beast when he tried. I'm not saying he will ever be that player again. Perhaps he is no longer hungry enough, but "what if" coming to Carolina and being around these young players on the rise with this new head coach is what he needed to rejuvenate his career. We might just have a good DT for several years. If he can't be that player or won't be that player then cut his ass. He most likely won't be much of a cap hit anyway.

Good God I can't wait for this bye week to end so we can get back to talking about how much Fua & McClain suck, instead of speculating about how much AH sucks..

[KDawg004]

No point in bringing him in this season. Let our young ones develop. Whether they keep sucking or not. If Haynesworth is still a FA this offseason then I'd kick the tires. Evaluate him in training camp and make him earn a spot.

I have to admit though. A motivated Haynesworth with Johnson, Hardy, along with Edwards back would be a pretty nasty DL. One can dream.

No, they are not the same type of player. No matter how many times you repeat it, its simply not true.
