Carlos could be good trade bait this year,......just think his value hasn't been higher since the draft, so maybe moving him, getting rid of some of those big contracts, springs, washington, ARE, ect. we could be making a move for a couple of draft picks,...maybe a 2nd and 4th, possible 5th with Rogers. just a thought?

why would we want to trade him? good cover corners are hard to find. and Los easily had his best season as a redskin. if anyone has to go, its smooty. cant cover my grandma( and she has been dead for 10 years)

So if we cut Springs and trade Carlos, who the hell is going to play corner next year? Hall and Smoot? I'm not sure it would be wise to get rid of both of them, then all of a sudden corner is a huge need.

I just hope this doesn't eventually mean the end of Rogers, who really had a breakout year. Spurning the guy we drafted in favor of someone else's free agent would kind of be a Vinny thing to do (although what is up with that draft pick comment? Were you joking or drinking a little too much egg nog?)

Hall is a #1 corner. Rogers isnt.

You need at least three good CB's to be successful in the NFL. We only have three good ones:
1) Springs
2) Hall
3) Rogers

All of our other CB's are not good enough. We would suffer a serious drop off in the level of play if Smoot or any of the other CB's were forced into action.
Drafting a strong CB would require a top 15 pick. We have too many other needs to be creating a CB need.
So please stop the trade and get rid of Springs & Rogers.

I agree Springs is the weakest link. Sign Hall and keep Carlos. IMO

DAMN RIGHT!!! I say give him 5 years 25mil... Crazy incentives... If he gets 5+ interceptions... give him another 2 mil.

I find it concerning that everywhere he's been he's been part of the problem. He's been called a cancer and has had attitude issues going all the way back to VA Tech. Of course, he's being a model citizen now, but for obvious reasons...money. Do an overwhelming majority like signing this guy to a long term contract? That's what it looks like. I guess all that stuff we spew about the Boyz signing malcontents w/ attitude issues is thrown out the window when it's "our" guy. Now D Hall is no where near Adam Jones or anything but he is a malcontent. People change, right?

Don't sign Hall. Go after someone else. You don't want someone who is a terrible team guy on the skins.

Hey, if we do, I'll be rooting for him to keep his act together and perform. I'm just not optimistic based on past behavior.

Jeez. How often do we hear guys say they want to wear the B & G? Rock says it and people love him for it - Hall says it and somehow it doesn't mean jack? Certainly we'll see what Hall is really about as the negotiations proceed but can we at least give the guy a chance. And let's put his past to rest. The Falcons were a nightmare until this year (indeed they're one of the best stories of '08) and the Raiders... c'mon.
