Editor's note: The above video is from Charles Haley's media availability on Jan. 31, after being elected to the 2015 NFL Hall of Fame.
Al Davis wanted to deal for Charles Haley when the 49ers decided to trade their top pass-rusher following a tumultuous 1991 season.
But the 49ers opted not to send Haley to the hated Raiders. So, instead, the 49ers made the regrettable decision that helped shift the balance of power in the NFL through much of the 1990s.
In Charles Haley: A Football Life, which premiers on the NFL Network after Thursday Night Football, former 49ers coach George Seifert appeared to get emotional when discussing the decision to part ways with one of the most dominant defensive players of his era.
