Skins in early contract talks with Hall to keep him in DC

Hall in early stages of contract talk with SKINS about long term deal. I hope they get this one done.

And think they will.

Thoughts.

Hall, Skins in Preliminary Talks - Redskins Insider (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/2008/12/redskins_and_hall_in_prelimina.html?wprss=redskins insider)

like the rest of them. i want him, just not at crazy money

Need to get this one done!!!

He won't get a deal as good as Oakland's last year, but he will get top end money. I'd like to see a long-term deal with high incentive clauses and salary but zero signing bonus. If he doesn't carry a high cost to cut him and he only is paid if he plays, he'll be an All-Pro. If he gets his payday and thinks that the team needs him and won't cut him, he'll be a slacker.

Love Hall, he's got the knack to make the big play, which has been missing from our defense. Plus he's young. He's worth big money; I just hope the Skins don't throw draft picks into the negotiations (yeah, I know, that doesn't make sense, but don't put it past VC).

While I don't put anything dumb past VC, how could draft picks enter into this equation? Hall is a FA this coming offseason. Unless he feels like forfeiting draft picks for the hell of it, this deal comes down to $$ and nothing else.

I really hope we sign him, but not if it chews up the room we need to sign more important positions of need: OL, DL, LB....

and the youth movement begins....

As I said in another thread I just hope it's a reasonable deal. I like his ability to snag INTs but he does have some baggage that is concerning.

Good to see this deal going down.

Now this is what I don’t get about skins fans. Those are only positions of need because they weren’t addressed when should have been! Corner NEEDS to be addressed now before it is too late.

So many people complained when we drafted 3 pass-catchers last year. That was absolutely needed! By the time Moss’ contract is up, they should all (hopefully) be fully acclimated to the NFL and the offense. ARE is not much help and may be gone sooner than later. This is the foresight that this organization has lacked for too long.
