$100 million + for Albert Haynesworth
$54 million for DeAngelo Hall

When will he learn?

well, DeAngelo Hall has had 2 consecutive excellent seasons. This year especially. (Unusually high-scorer on my fantasy team)

But I wouldn't say he's $54 million good. Snyder is still an idiot...

lmao at paying that for Haynesworth.

heard on the radio, he's not finished a full season yet and misses 40% of defensive plays.

Hall is not good! He gets picks, which is why he is a high fantasy scorer, but he gets burned a LOT, he can't tackle, and he has a horrible attitude that leads to a lot of DPI/personal foul calls.

Seriously. Aren't you a 'boys fan? Pot, meet kettle.

Jerry Jones is nothing like Dan Snyder.

Jerry Jones will bring in a talented free agent that has off-the-field issues, pay them market value (TO, Pacman, Tank), but gives most of the big contracts to drafted players (Romo, Barber, Witten).

Dan Snyder will bring in an overrated, mediocore free agent and give him far more money than he's worth (Hall, Randel El, Archuletta). Rarely do they retain talent as core players.

Haynesworth is a little different in that he is legitimately one of the best at his position - but he's ALWAYS hurt, and he gave him more money than Peyton Manning.

No, they are quite similar actually - they make terrible personnel moves.

I don't care about this. The owners should quit bitching about teams spending a lot of money. do you see it in baseball? If a team overpays, so what. that doesn't mean you have to do the same. If no one else if gonna give similar players similar deals, they'll take the lower money contracts

You can't even try to compare football contracts to baseball. Football has a hard salary cap - teams can only spend a certain amount of money.

That's what makes Snyder's tactics moronic. The Yankees can go out and "buy" a championship because they can spend however much money they want. If the Redskins give DeAngelo Hall $54 million, they now have that much less they can spend.
