I REALLY hope this works out...because if this turns out to be a Bust, it's like a kiss of death to this franchise.

Here we go....How many "Trying to buy a SB" comments are we going to hear now? I REALLY hope this works out because I'm sick and tired of having to defend this team on FA picks...for the next 10 years...

yea! lets party like its 2000?

its getting really hard to defend the theory that dan snyder doesnt care as much about marketing as he does winning...

Haynesworth and Hall. Sweet. Pick up a LB and the defense should be set. Hopefully Daniels comes back HEALTHY too.

My guess is the Skins will now trade down from the 1st round and pick up some O lineman for depth.

I wonder/hope if there is any $$ left to bring Dockery back?

Gotta give Mr. Snyder an A for effort.........GO SKINS!

Hey!!!!
I thought our issues last year were offensive????? I understand what significants it will have if he reaches his potential, but the last thing i remember last year was not being able to score??? Unless were planning on scoring more defensively what are we gonna do to address the 30-40 plus sacks that Campbell tried to survive last year???

GOD BLESS THE SKINS!!!!!
(Someone please help me understand the logic of a top 10 rush defense adding this guy. and a 100 mil. for 8.5 sacks sounds like alot)

Say what you will about Snyder. The guy steps up and keeps rolling them in. He wants to win. And as fans it's time to consider the alternative - we could be the Cardinals or any number of teams who don't pay up. This is a GREAT move. I don't CARE how much it costs - I don't care about dollars... I care about talent and my team just stepped up - BIG time. And the fact that he stomped on a Cowboy's bare head just makes it extra sweet.... ESPN says that he has a bad attidude for that... I wish we had 45 more guys who would stomp on Cowboy heads. It's about TIME!!!! Way to go Skins!!!!!!

So now what,who are they going to get rid of to be under the cap they could have gotten two (2) players for that price on defense what about other needs and to free up cap space the clouds are gray i hope this work out i really do

Wow theres good and bad to this. He could turn out to be a bust if he starts getting lazy. And 100 million is a lot for any player, even if it's a qb. Hopefully this works out and its a great pickup. Our defense is set if we get a LB and young DE's. Although why would we give him a 7 year contract hes gonna be old in like 4-5 years and won't be able to deliver for what hes worth moneywise.

I like the pickup but if we get our offense going (j.campbell) were sick, although next year we're gonna need to sign a qb next year after we release campbell and won't have money to.

just pick up some young OL in the draft and sign a LB

Honestly I am happy about this Haynesworth and Hall around 154 mill for thos guys in one night that is so sweet seriously! Now we have one thing to fill in and thats LB (like what Ray Minor said). I cant wait to see what happens next. I also knew that they would re-sign Hall it doesnt matter about the money honestly it grows off trees for DS so it doesnt make a difference as for offense thats why the draft exsist. Young guys on the line and dline Cowboys are gonna have it rough this year I really really really feel bad for Romo wait! no i dont! Hail

Eric, that attitude disgusts me. That is not at all the actions of a "true Redskin."

I'm with skinsnut on the needs of the team.

If ten years of Snyder history is any indication, this will be a huge bust and Haynesworth will NOT play to his potential and will NOT earn his money. Albert Haynes-not-worth-it.

We don't need guys w/ bad attitudes either. Are we trying to become Cowboys East?

I hope I am wrong.

skinsnut-

Yea i know 100 million is alot to pay for haynesworth and it's obvious the team overpaid, but with the way free agency works, players like haynesworth are gonna get overpaid because their in such high demand. Teams will be willing to pay almost anything to have a player like him. If he didn't sign with the skins, he would have gotten this kind of deal somewhere else. Plus 8.5 sacks for a DT is actually pretty good considering he was also injured part of the season. What I like about Haynesworth though is the disruption that he brings to the other teams o-line. He is so often double and triple teamed that other rushers get a chance to make plays and that's really what the skins need.

I just read an ESPN flash that SKINS are now in negotiations with Dockery.....that would be nice........real nice.

HAIL!!

I think this is a great signing. He will make everyone on the defense around him better. He might even make Jason Taylor worth the money. You can't block Jason Taylor, Albert Haynesworth, and Andre Carter. I know people are gonna say this is just Dan Snyder throwing money at people and trying to buy a Superbowl, but the guy grew up a Skins fan and he has a ton of money. Tell me you wouldn't do the same if you had the chance?

I don't agree to either of these signings! Once again our hopes are pinned on a couple of guys that get huge press as our future and they have a combined 1/2 season Skins experience between them. This might be another Kearse deal, we'll see.

i am happy.... but i hope it owrks out!!! we better have #1 or 2 defense in the NFL cuz thats what 100 mil is worth!!! he beter play... i hope we get the oline going now!!! defense should be set... maybe an LB.... i dunno how much money we got left though!!! ....
