La Canfora says trade of Haynesworth is "very likely"

A year ago, Redskins owner Daniel Snyder recommended former team beat writer Jason La Canfora for Adam Schefter's old job at NFL Network. Many thought that Snyder simply wanted to get La Canfora out of his team's backyard, given an at-times adversarial relationship between La Canfora and the franchise.

But even though La Canfora's beat now includes the other 31 teams, too, he's surely still got a soft spot for the Redskins. And he's currently pushing a story that the team officially has been denying. Vehemently.

A day after coach Mike Shanahan insisted that there has been no trade talk regarding defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth, La Canfora reports (via our corporate siblings at Rotoworld) that a draft week trade of the 2009 free-agent acquisition is "very likely."

Though Haynesworth currently has a contract very conducive to a trade, with as a practical matter three years, $16 million, and $9 million guaranteed, the fact that he received $20 million on April 1 could be an issue. The Redskins surely will want some of that money back from him, and he'd likely be willing to return some of it -- especially if his new team would be willing to reimburse him via some new money.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
