Over the past week, there’s been a multitude of rumors floating around claiming the Redskins would be all too eager to send defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth packing for a new home, and while team officials in Washington have remained adamant that there’s no way that would happen, it simply made too much sense not to explore it.

That said, it’s likely that the final nail in that coffin was put into place this afternoon, with Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan speaking on the subject with the folks over at NFL Network, saying pretty clearly that “it’s not going to happen.”

Given the way the first round played out, I tend to agree, with Detroit taking defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh at #2 overall, removing that need from their board. It’s possible that the Titans and the Raiders could make a push to get Haynesworth in the fold, potentially trading a third round pick and something else to get him on their side, but for now, it seems as though the chances of that happening are slim to none.
