Based on play TT may be forced to make a serious attempt at AH. Premature to say "Its not going to happen." -

Its not premature if Thompson doesn't change his ways. He will not get into a bidding war with another team! If any other team makes AH an offer, Thompson will stick his head in the sand.
Besides, Thompson probably still expects Justin Harrell to become a one man force for the D-line. Who needs AH?

Never happen...
946 players in next years draft... standard TT offseason

he's got to do something to counter the negativity that's been attributed to him. it would help the team and be politically smart.

Going after Haynesworth would indicate that Thompson had given up on Harrell. I doubt he's ready to do that just yet.
Even in that case, the only way he would pull the trigger is if it looked like a bargain situation. And that seems doubtful.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

never will happen
I'd be fine if this thread is used as an I told you so against me though
When Haynesworth signs with somebody everybody will coin the phrase "overpaid" again.TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWERComment

Depends on how outrageous it is. He certainly deserves to be the highest paid DT and maybe Dlineman, but how much over?
There comes a point where it's not worth it, but that point is pretty damn high with a guy like Hayensworth. I think we'll be in the conversation. We could use him. He's great. TT is in the conversation with a lot of great players and this is one we really need (unlike Moss and Gonzo which were more luxury pieces). Eventually one will come through. Maybe there is enough motiviation for this one?Formerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment

I see no reason to count TT out of talks. The only reason I'd say it won't happen is because it'd be too good to be true.70% of the Earth is covered by water. The rest is covered by Al Harris.Comment

I don't like your sense of humor.

Unless the Titans completely lowball him, I suspect he'll get a deal done in Tennessee. Didn't he go to school there? They seem like a tight-knit D. Titans don't have many high priced players. They should have plenty of money.
I'd be shocked if he went anywhere, even more so if he ended up here. Not a criticism of Ted, but if he left 31 teams would be after him. Tough odds.#14Comment

I think JH is right - will he be incredibly highly paid? Yes, of course. And it will raise eyebrows around here, and around the league, whatever the number he gets. But whatever it is, I don't think I'll call it overpaid, because he is probably the best in the league at his position.--

That's what they said about Reggie White. The question is, is this guy worth Reggie-money--in today's dollars?
I tend to think, no. I tend to think Thompson will decide, no also.
Haynesworth is the flavor of the month, but he doesn't have the long term performance or the character of Reggie White.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

so spending money (that we'll never miss) should only be spent for the type of player that only comes along every twenty/thirty years or so?Originally posted by texaspackerbackerComment

I'd say the chances of this happening are at about .00001%. Teddy T would never pony up money like that.Comment

It would actually be smarter than the Reggie deal. The Minister of Defense was around 32 or 33 when he signed with the Pack AH would be 28. That's 4 years of prime, top-of-his-game play that the Pack would get that we never got to see from Reggie.
Sign AH, draft 3 DEs and 3 OLs, then watch the Lombardi tropheys come rolling in. You heard it here first.Comment
