Falcons Won't Pursue Haynesworth

Albert Haynesworth is now the top defensive tackle on the free agent market, but the Falcons don't intend on pursuing him.
"We are not going to be major players in free agency," Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff said Friday at the NFL scouting combine.
Haynesworth wants a $40 million deal, which would make him the highest paid defensive lineman in the league.
"Albert Haynesworth is obviously a fine football player, but our aim is not to be major players in free agency," Dimitroff said. "It is to continue to get back focusing on the draft."
