Hall agrees to one year deal with skins

Skins confirm that Hall will wear #21 (http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s115/Stevo71/Funny%20Stuff/SuckaFish.jpg)
Got me, silliness LOL

Redskins sign Hall - Redskins 360 - Washington Redskins Commentary - Washington Times (http://www.washingtontimes.com/weblogs/redskins/2008/Nov/07/redskins-sign-hall/) The Raiders gave him a seven-year, $70 million contract but quickly became fed up with his poor play and pouting.

I put no stock in anything the Raiders have to say or do.....that franchise is the most disfunctional joke in the NFL. They weren't satisfied with Randy Moss's poor play and pouting either.

i met d hall one time at a bar in norfolk on granby street. he was with the falcons at the time (i think 2005).

actually was a nice guy - not a prick or anything.

Should they have been?

Hall didn't seem be too interested in playing football while at Oakland. The article I read on his performance indicated he wasn't covering guys too well.

well who is interested at playing in oakland? lol =]

I can't specifically explain why but I like this move the best of James, J. Taylor, and Alexander. I've never been 100% sold on James, Taylor is in his last couple of years and we did have to give up some for him, Alexander is just a body who was very low risk but I doubt has any sort of future here.

Hall, on the other hand, is young, talented, and could be potentially be a starting defender with Rogers for years to come. He's been surrounded by chaos the past year or so, I think with some stability around him he can shine.

what i like about this move is that he is a corner who can actually catch, one of the league leaders in interceptions since he was drafted. very low risk move

he's looking to play well the rest of this season and hit a big pay-off in free agency..

I think when we make the playoffs... we might be able to sway him away from looking for big money, our team, and team continuity as far as players go .... will be something in the back of his mind ...

and this is all IF he plays well and doesnt act like a basket-case.

I like the signing, especially after I found out that we got him for $492,000. There's virtually no risk and there's potential for a big reward in this move.

I can think of at least 70 million reasons he had to play great on the field, be nice off the field and not be a cry baby little bitch, if that was the true case in Oakland. One thing that is for sure his play on the field was bad.

With that being said. Thats water under the bridge. That was then this is now, he has a new chance to prove himself. He is a two time pro-bowler and there are a lot of really good players in this league that never get that honor. Maybe, he can return to form, who knows? We will find out in the next seven games how he responds.

Bottom line, the Skins got this guy cheap. Not any gamble on this guy at this cost. Could just turn out to be very helpful down the stretch, we'll see.
