New England Patriots got the better of the players prone to problems such as Corey Dillon and Randy Moss.

Why did not Albert Haynesworth?

Now the Patriots will get their chance. On Thursday, the team reports traded a fifth-round pick in 2013 to Washington for Haynesworth, a two-time All-Pro defensive tackle who occasionally incredible, but more often apathetic. The agreement is subject to Haynesworth pass a physical exam, which is no guarantee.

Haynesworth and Redskins coach Mike Shanahan has never clicked. Haynesworth will be remembered as the most expensive bust in Washington's history so far, the Redskins gave him a seven-year contract for $ 100 million in 2009, with $ 41 million guaranteed.

Haynesworth is scheduled to make $ 5 million this year.

"You will see how we do things here, point blank," Patriots defensive lineman Vince Wilfork, told reporters. "We've had kids come here with a rap sheet and [people] say they can not be handled, this guy can not do this, and guess what, it worked out well for us.

"So I do not think it will be a big problem."

It was not only attractive head coach Bill Belichick to spend the day. According to several reports, which are also sold to Cincinnati receiver Chad Twitter Ochocinco happy of all-time leader in receptions Bengals (751), receiving yards (10.783) and touchdowns (66).

Among the most active players in the league in Twitter, Ochocinco was unusually quiet after the operation, simply Twitter: "God is so good."

As of Thursday afternoon, the Patriots had not announced its operations, and none of them had the Redskins and Bengals. That was in line with the opacity of this week's unprecedented last hour of trading. Teams can make trades and releasing players, but are not allowed to sign unrestricted free agents until 3 pm PDT Friday.

Still, handshake deals have happened around the league this week, with the promise of an interesting month of training camps before the regular season starts in six weeks.

Some of the notable moves Thursday:

• In a trade that was telegraphed for some time, he sent quarterback Kevin Kolb Philadelphia to Arizona cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and a second-round pick. That came a day after news that Minnesota had a trade with the Redskins quarterback Donovan McNabb. Not long ago, a graph of the Eagles deep once read, 1. McNabb, 2. Kolb, 3. Michael Vick.

• Brad Smith, the versatile receiver for the Jets in New York, reached an agreement with Buffalo, stirring speculation that the bills is often used as a Wildcat quarterback.

• Two quarterbacks starting old were shown the door, with the release of Jake Delhomme and Tennessee Cleveland say goodbye to Vince Young.

• Miami reportedly made a deal with New Orleans running back Reggie Bush for. Nine years ago, the Dolphins made a trade with the Saints for another Heisman Trophy winning running back Williams, Ricky. Although Williams ended up winning a title for land in Miami, the Dolphins have not won a postseason game since making the deal.
