I wish people would stop taking pft.com rumors are truth.
Lawyers, coaches and players use this venue to argue their cause or issue. Truth is relative, as any story gets printed.
Personally, I see Hall being hired as both sides want it and his value is whatever someone will pay for him.
Ppl here are complaining about X dollars for Hall when we are paying Springs about a $1 mill a game, or about $2 mill for each Jason Taylor sack. Both of those guys had less games last season together than Hall played.

There is no doubting Hall's talent. I think there is a reason why teams stopped targeting Hall late in the season, and in my opinion Hall is worth every cent of 16 million (or whatever amount Synder gives him). I'm with Ruhskins on how Hall is portrayed by some of you guystalk about his "bad character". GIVE IT A REST He had a coach who quit in the middle of the seson and yapped on ESPN. WHO Gives A F... I mean we had ST (allegedly) pulling guns on people nice guy but he was somewhat shady. BUT he matured and changed and so will Hall.
Point is I expect for him to Re-sign and have a pro bowl year

i think we should low ball him, we need to start making smart contract deals, give him less guarnateed and more incentives. give him a $2 mil bonus for not getting burned like he always does. That would be money well spent. We all know danny got money but to give out high guarenteed contract to a dude who is known to slack is just stupid
where do you get this stuff about slacking. Have you acually followed his carrier? The guy is a great talent and will only get better. Stop believing the rumors. He's for real.
Funny how we wish we had this guy or that guy but when we get a chance at something good we won't see it. This guy goes somewhere else we will regret it.

My opinion (not that anybody cares) is that we obviouslly need to keep the guy. I do not know about that "at any cost" thing, but we almost cannot afford to lose him without picking up another CB else where.
Shawn Springs (as many have already pointed out) is past his prime and often injured. Many believe that he is the best corner on our team. Based on what exactly? Oh, congrats he locked down T.O. until he had to leave the game with an injury. Then Carlos picked up his slack. He is not worth his paycheck.
Carlos Rogers is (IMO) the best corner on the squad. He is even keel. He will defense any teams best reciever week in and week out. He will not get the intercecptios, but he rarely allows the big play either. The FO and others on this site should be ashamed for considering letting him go for draft picks. In reality you would not get more than 2 picks for the guy, and you would have to use one of them to attempt to replace him. It's not worth it.
Fred Smoot...I have a soft spot for Smoot, I really do. The reality is however that he is not the CB he used to be. The only reason that he should stay is because of depth and experience. I would hate to think what would happen if there wasn't a Fred Smoot to play in front of a Justin Tryon. Smoot may give up some plays at times but he unlike Springs can actually take the field most of the time. He can also be valuable to the team in terms of helping the younger guys out. He doesn't fly off to Texas in the middle of the week.
Justin Tryon...do not get me started. He has alot to learn and his youth alone gives him another shot at the squad in the offseason.
So as you can see if we do not keep Hall we are going to be in a world of hurt at the CB position. Especially if we trade Rogers. Everybody saw what our defense was like in the 4th quarter this past season...giving up big plays and not getting off of the field. We already have a suspect D line. If we compound that with a weaker secondary, then our defense will really be frustrating to watch when the game is on the line.
Agree with the whole thing. Haha just supporting someone not supporting ignorance. A lot of people say they hate Cerratto and then support decisions that only Vinny Cerratto would continue to make at this point. Thats the problem with him, he's like a fan running a team, he just wants big names and doesn't know how to build. but reallly good post.
