Redskins Making Serious Claims For Haynesworth

The Washington Redskins appear to be the new leader in the Albert Haynesworth competition, and the Houston Chronicle is reporting that they will do whatever it takes financially to acquire Haynesworth when free agency begins Friday at 12:01AM

A source tells the Houston Chronicle that the Redskins will wait for the Tennessee Titans to make an offer to Haynesworth and then will likely offer him a $100 million contract with an average of $15-16 million per year. "My guy is almost never wrong and [Redskins owner] Dan Snyder gets what he wants," writes the Chronicle's Lance Zierlein.

SI.com's Peter King reported earlier this week that Haynesworth's agent, Chad Speck, was seen having dinner with Snyder in Indianapolis, where the NFL Combine is being held.
