Haynesworth Released

[OrangeByBirth]

Big Albert Haynesworth was released today by the Tampa Bay Bucs. Since signing with the 'skins he has done little in the league. He's going to have to work if he wants to play again.

 

[GreveHaller]

IMO, he's done. When he got his big bucks with the Skins and showed his colors then between the Pats and now the Bucs cutting him, his name is mud. No one wants to pay his salary with the little output he shows as well as his attitude.

The benefits just dont outweigh the cost

Just three years ago, he was voted the most dominating player in the game by his peers. The vote wasn't close either. I don't think he likes it very much

He's done. Great talent. I'd like to criticize his effort, but I don't know what it's like to crash my 350 lb body against 300 lb bodies on a daily basis.

I imagine I would have a motivational problem if I ever cashed a $10 million check.

It's not like money made him lazy, he's been like that playing football his entire career.

Once he got paid, what's the point of doing something you don't necessarily love?

 

[Weezy]

I actually thought he stood a chance back in the 4-3. Maybe the Bucs just weren't a good fit. Some other team will take a chance. He wouldn't be a bad fit (if there is a fit) as a rotational player in Denver's 4-3 with Fox and Del Rio.

I guess this probably ends Big Al's career...

Probably, but at that size/weight his knees are probably also reaching the point of being near sh-t too

There was only one coach who could ever motivate him and he's now the dline coach in Philly; might be the only place he could actually be successful again, possibly just for that reason

 

[YankeeVol]

He's done. Or at least should be. He doesn't deserve to play

he had a $21 million check he didnt cash for something like a month. Danny had to call him up and ask if he lost it or something.

 

[Burhead]

I'm sure some team might take a risk on him for the cheap. I would like to see him go up to Detroit and see if playing beside Suh could get him back going again.

"Oh hey Dan, it's in my wallet. I just haven't made it to the bank yet"

they have Fairly in his second year; not sure haynesworth wouldn't be much more than part of the rotation over there

 

[VolsFan4Ever-11]

Yep his lazy fat ass is done. No team should pay him.

 

[underscore]

It is as if his career ended when he curb stomped Andre Gurode.

 

[superdave1984]

He'll be broke in 5 years or less.
