Titans won't give up first-round pick for Haynesworth

Let's ignore the complicated financial aspects of an Albert Haynesworth trade for a minute.

What would he cost in terms of trade compensation?

Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean, who is about as clued in to his team as any beat writer, breaks down what the Titans would give up for their former defensive tackle.

The Titans would not be willing to part with their first-round pick. They don't have a second-round pick, but would be willing to give up a third-rounder for Haynesworth.

Well, that's pretty specific. At his reduced salary level, Haynesworth has plenty of value. We'd guess he has more value than a third-rounder, but this is new territory we're wading into.

Using a 2011 draft pick to sweeten the deal is a possibility, if the Commanders are truly motivated sellers.

According to beat writer Jim Wyatt, the Titans would be willing to give up a third-round pick to acquire Albert Haynesworth but not a first-rounder.

The Commanders were believed to be willing to part with Haynesworth for a third-rounder before they picked up his $21M bonus, but we can't imagine that remains the case. The Titans don't have a 2010 second-rounder, so they'd have to dig into the 2011 draft to further entice the Commanders.

LOL! After signing him to that huge mistake of a deal they were willing to move him a mere year later for a 3rd round pick?
