Was that before or after he tried to get his teammates to show up late for practice?

All-Pro.

That team is horrible, and they had a ton of injuries. There’s a reason they switched coaches halfway through the season, and fired Zorn soon after.
Just look at how well Brian Orakpo did in his rookie season.. and a lot of that can be contributed to Haynesworth. But they need to get much younger linebackers, and they need an offense that can put at least a few points on the board. Perhaps if they address the offensive line, that will happen.

Unless, that is, the Redskins managed to negotiate a $100 million contract from scratch in 5.5. hours. While Haynesworth’s agent was also entertaining offers from multiple other teams.

Easy
“Hmmmm… The Redskins are offering us $100m+ and… hello?… hello?”
Anyway, where were we with that huge contract that you offered?

But the guy just collected a huge salary and was not very impressive on a consistent basis.

Go back to when he faced a rookie tackle for Denver, he was dominated.

I’m not sure what the numbers on that offer were, only that it would have made him the highest paid defensive player in the league at the time, any know what the offer was?

Most QBs aren’t making that kind of bread.
Forget that.

The perfect situation just isn’t there.

All they have to do is look at how well Haynesworth worked out for the skins last year for a fine example. They got a whole 37 tackles and 4 sacks from their 100 million dollar man. Peppers will be just as unmotivated once he gets his big money
