Albert Haynesworth is a Redskin!!!!

working on numbers now... 32mill is the first year salary and signing bonus, and then 41 - (32 - 1st year salary) in some other guaranteed money. 7 years/100$mill means it'll actually be a bit easier on the 2009 cap then what i originally expected as a straight deal.

I'll need specifics on that non signing bonus guaranteed money to figure out the specifics, but i can assume its not on the 2009 cap and work off that... it just means that the 2010 on numbers could vary a little depending on how exactly that extra guarantee is put in there. (though technically all guaranteed money after the end of cap should count fully in 2009).

I would have liked to seen us go after O Line (J. Saturday possible) and save some of that money.

you have some strange (and wrong) math

please enlighten me on how he costs us 7mill and how hall costs us 4mill then. i'll wait.

154mill, 64mill guaranteed, and it only counts 11mill in 2009 as you predicted without any work to show how that fits the current cap and accounting rules and gets passed by the league offices.

again, please, let me know what i'm missing :P cause i don't think i'm the one with the weird math here.

I would have liked to seen us go after O Line (J. Saturday possible) and save some of that money.

Saturday is old and already re-signed with Indy. I'll await word of the $$ implications from the usual suspects.

any links yet? i'm watching espn and looking and not seeing anything yet.

The Washington Redskins have made the biggest splash on the first day of NFL free agency, signing former Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth to a seven-year, $100 million contract.

Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that the deal includes $41 million guaranteed in the first three years, and the maximum value of the deal could be $115 million. According to Schefter, the deal is the richest contract ever given to a player and includes more guaranteed money than any contract in NFL history has ever included.

those numbers sound closer to being right.

It's true it's on redskins.com on the front page ticker. $ 100M, as I said before, I don't like it, HUGE risk when we have many other holes to fill.

It's going to be interesting to see the final terms of both AH & Hall's deals. So the D looks like this Carter-Haynesworth-Griffen-Taylor on the line. LB's McIntosh-Fletcher-Blades?. Hall-Landry-Horton-Rogers with Smoot as the nickel. You have to love this D! Fletcher will be able to run free sideline to sideline. It also free's up doubles on Taylor or Carter for the most part. But the biggest part is big Al stoping the run and screens up the middle!

ESPN.com, reports the same.

Albert Haynesworth signs 7-year deal with Redskins - ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3939011)

Vinny was on Mike and Mike ESPN raido to talk about the Big Al Deal! The Dael atrted at 1201 am and was final at 530 am. Haynesworth didn't wanted to get in a bidding war. Still there was six other teams looking at Al and on the phone but in the end he wented with the Skins. Sal Pal and Golic love the move! What I love about big Al is he will keep the other East teams from running up the middle. Haynesworth in the middle of that Titan D averaged less the 100 yards running pergame the last two years! If he can help do that and get a push up the middle that would he worth the cash.

No more Bradon Jacobs running up the middle like last years season opener!

Can't wait to see the Skins play the Raiders this fall!

I dont want to encourage stomping on opposing players heads however if his heels slips in a couple of Dallas games I might be looking for my drink at that moment!!!
