Belichick rolling the dice again with a troubled, but talented, player. Costs the Pats a 5th Rounder next year, seems like this one is a steal. It's already worked with Dillon and Moss and the Pats just got the pass rusher they desperately needed.

Wow that is a steal, lets see now if Fat Albert comes to play.Comment -
Will he play humm maybe my guess an injury will occur within 2 weeksComment -
hoodie should be able to get this terd in checkComment -
Couldn't agree more. I think he plays great there.
Comment -
He is a fat piece of garbage in my opinionComment -
Yes, and Randy Moss was a lazy malcontent that was past his prime till he got to the Patriots. I am betting bill has a pretty good idea that Albert will be highly motivated to prove his doubters wrong and he also will be part of a rotation, so he won't get overworked. Also, no guraunteed money for the Pats so if it doesn't work I believe they can cut him and basically just lose the 5th round pick.Comment -
Hell of a trade for the Pats.Comment -
The pats got a steal with this one but who knows if he will perform! Hes so freakin fat he can barely move!Comment -
this is going to be very entertaining to watch...Comment -
Why are the Patroits the only team that buys low, and sells high in the offseason?
I Fat Albert is only coasting them a 5th rounder, 5 mill gauranteed, and a roster spot. Any signs of malcontent, and he gets cut. Brilliant.
I wish the Cowboys had a real GM. When Jimmy Johnson was around, th3e Cowboys pillaged othrs roster in the same fashion.Comment -
If there's anyone who can motivate Fat Albert into playing up to his potential, it's clearly Bill Belichik. Love this trade for the Patriots.Comment -
Always a great move "cause they're the Pats".....doesn't matter what it is......never heard 1 bad move from them, never
Get off Belichiks balls guys.....team hasnt won it all since 04......They have embarrassed themselves the last few times around in the playoffs......weak-minded teams do this
Comment -
money line dawg you are clearly a new yorker...Comment -
Please explain how they've embarrassed themselves?Comment -
09: Home playoff game.....Bent over by the Ravens
10: Bye, Home playoff game.....Beat and outsmarted by the rival Jets at home after 14-2 season
Asante Samuel? That's 1 move.......Every other single little move is ALWAYS giving BB the benefit of the doubt....."It's the Patriot Way"Comment -
2) Richard Seymour
3) Deion Branch
4) Matt Cassel/Mike Vrabel (they were given away to KC, just to help out Pioli)
Media and fans have been upset/angry with those four deals and I'm not even digging too deep.
Also, calling the Patriots an embarrassment? Sanchez can't get over the AFC title game hump and probably never will.Comment -
It'll be extreme either way. He'll be great or suck it.
I hope it's the latter.Comment -
I said they embarrassed themselves the last 2 seasons in the playoffs......and they did. Or did you expect them to get crushed at home by the Ravens and lose to the Jets? Simple fact here.
I'm talking about the national media and national fans always giving the Pats the benefit of the doubt......it's true man, just read this thread. If almost any other team picked up Haynesworthless, there's no way there would be this much positive reaction
And talking about Sanchez getting over the AFC Title game hump is a complement considering he's only been in the league 2 years LOLComment -
Sooooo, it's OK for the Jets to lose in the playoffs but not OK for the Pats to?
That doesn't make a lot of sense.
Seems as though you're just the typical, ignorant, Jets fan...so I won't waste any more time.Comment -
Hey retard Pats were favored AT HOME in both games......Went 1 and out both years against lesser regular seaosn teams including an ass whupping to the Ravens and a loss to the rival Jets
That's what we call EMBARRASSING YOURSELF
Huge difference from the Jets.......Sanchez the rookie qb and then 2nd year qb led them to 4 playoff wins ON THE ROAD AS UNDERDOGS in the last 2 seasons, only to fall short to more experienced playoff teams in back to back AFC Championship games
It's not the same situation, and it's not even close....You ride the short bus or are all people from New England this dumb?Comment -
well worth the gamble. if anyone can control him its bellichikComment -
Talk radio says not yet, if haynesworth does not produce, pats have the option of releasing himComment -
MoneyDick...you are a classic hater. If you paid attention Haynesworth WANTS to play in a true 3-4 defense. I think he will be motivated to prove his detractors wrong plus he gets what he wants. Even if he does not play well it was still a good move worth being made.
Now, aside from trying to stack their roster like the Miami heat did (and we see how that turned out) what have the Junk Jets done lately? Hmmm, let's take a look shall we?
2001 - 2010 (The embarrassing Patriots vs. the Almighty Jets)
Division Titles
NE - 8
Junk - 1
Superbowl record:
NE: 3-1
Junk 0-0
Postseason Record:
NE: 14-5
Junk: 6-6
Last SB win:
NE: 2004
Junk: 1969
Trash talking:
Jets: 1000
NE: 1 (Tom saying he hates the Jets, got a little ahead of himself).
Okay, Okay you do have the Patriots beat in one category so I will give you props where props are due,
Damn the Patriots suck, it is tough being a NE fan these days.

Don't the pats play a 3-4 that's why he didn't want to play for shanahanComment -
LOL.....my only point was the Pats embarrassed themselves the last 2 playoffs.....I guess it's hard for Pats fans to admit that and have to switch it to "Sanchezzz Suckzzz LOLZZZ"Comment -
Doesn't matter what has happened in the past.....I will be the first to admit the Patriots have been much better than the Jets for the last decade
Rex Ryan has a better record against BB heads up and I like our chances going forward......Thank OP for switching it to Jets vs. PatriotsComment -
Haynesworth is a decent move for the Patriots.....only point is that, say the Jets signed him, there's NO CHANCE the media/ and fans globally would be praising it like they are here
GL this season.....as much as we hate eachother, the Jets and Pats will be up thereComment -
ya...instead jerry is giving away 1st and 3rds(and i think a 7th) for roy williams....roy has always been a 'dog'...got fleeced real good by martin mayhew
as a lifelong pats fan and season ticket holder i love this move....
find it funny to watch jets fans talk trash....try winning some more regular season games and maybe you wouldnt have to play all your playoff games on the road....your team hasnt won shit....
also funny to hear 'lakerboy' say the pats 'era' is over and they wont win anything going forward....i know hes a sharp poster....but thats just ridiculousComment -
Great news for Miami fans.
Comment -
Hey Bobby....Haynesworth is a solid move, low risk high reward. Wish the Jets jumped in on it
Jets fans can talk trash back and forth....we have gotten the better of you guys last season and since Rex has been HC. Rivalries are no fun if one team constantly dominates (Like you guys did when Herm was the HC lol)
Pats 'Era' was over in 04......Whether they can start a new one remains to be seenComment -
haynesworth is a solid move.....ty warren went on ir before the season started...by the end of the year they were playing undrafted rookies up front......if warren doesnt get cut....theyll be sending warren and albert, with vince in the middle, out there.....thats pretty scary....the 3-4 ends in our scheme are supposed to eat up space and blockers.....like big sey used to.....they wont put up big sack totals.......essentially they moved big sey for a 1st round pick...and replaced him with alberty for a 5th....big sey was a great leader and high character guy....so thats where the risk is with al....but its definitley worth a shotComment
