Pro Bowl defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, who skipped the Redskins' voluntary workout program in protest of his new role on the team, will not attend the mandatory minicamp that begins Wednesday and wants to be traded, his agent said Tuesday night.

"The Redskins are trying to establish a new regime with new schemes at Redskins Park, and it is not an organization that Albert would have ever been attracted to just a short year ago - regardless of the money," agent Chad Speck said in a phone interview. "He has made it clear to me that he does not want to play for the Washington Redskins.

"This situation will be a distraction to the Redskins and to Albert and his teammates. I am certain [head coach] Mike [shanahan] and [General Manager] Bruce [Allen] want to get the most out of their first year and it's probably in everyone's best interests for the Redskins to make a deal and trade Albert."

his contract(after the Redskins paid that big bonus recently) isn't that bad if I remember correctly

I think he's pissed about the 3-4 defense. his contract contains a shiitload of incentives that he won't be able to achieve as a 3-4 nt

Who would want that fat ass? Does he object to the 3-4 system, or to the new regime?

I don't see many 4-3 teams spending much to get him, especially with that contract.

Wow.

He only wants out because his contract is riddle with performance bonus' (IE sacks, TKFL, etc) that he just couldn't get in a 3-4. As a UT in our scheme he would bring some much need interior pressure.

With that being said I have as much of a chance of winning the lottery as ever seeing Haynesworth in a Panthers uniform.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
