Haynesworth to Tampa?

Roy Cummings of the Tampa Tribune talked about the Buccaneers as being a team that could attempt to acquire Albert Hanyesworth. Here are a couple of quotes from his interview:

โ€œIt makes a great deal of sense and hereโ€™s why,โ€ Cummings said. โ€œDonโ€™t forget, the Buccaneers were the team that offered Albert Haynesworth more money than anybody else in the NFL last year.  A lot of people forget that โ€” conveniently want to ignore that fact.

โ€œLetโ€™s not forget, Bruce Allen drafted Michael Clayton,โ€ Cummings said.  โ€œOne thing Bruce Allen will always do as an NFL General Manager is try to prove that many mistakes heโ€™s made as a General Manager were not mistakes at all.  Heโ€™s not good at what he does.  And he makes a situation worse by trying to constantly prove that he did not make a mistake in drafting this guy in the first round, second round, third round. . . .  I wouldnโ€™t be surprised to see him do it again.โ€

With all things considered, this would be a shocker of a trade if it happened. Michael Clayton can not have that much value and the team would still have to be willing to pay a player who has blatantly under performed for the first year of his massive contract. I agree that Bruce Allen has made his share of bad decisions but this may only add to his total.v
