the redskins signed free safety cory hall, who previously played for the falcons. i think this move has something to do with sean taylor holding out, i think they are preparing for the worst if he doesn't attend any practices or minicamps.

http://sportsmed.starwave.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/sml/trans/was.gif Washington Redskins (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=was): Former Falcons free safety Cory Hall (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=4715) agreed Monday to a one-year deal with the Redskins. He will sign for $565,000.

Hall was considered one of the top free-agent safeties in the past couple of years, but things didn't work out in Atlanta; he was released by the Falcons after two seasons. Though he was on the Cowboys' short list, Hall didn't want to wait for an offer from Dallas.

The 28-year-old Hall was a third-round draft choice of the Bengals in 1999 and played four seasons for Cincinnati, starting his final two years. The 6-foot, 213-pound Hall played his college ball at Fresno State.

The Redskins have good depth at the safety position with Sean Taylor (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=6764), Matt Bowen (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=5227) and Pierson Prioleau (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=4760).

With Taylor, Bowen, Lott, Clark, Prioleau and Hall, we've got 1 or 2 too many safeties. It should be interesting to see who gets the ax.

No problem, I have been having plenty of those lately!

This will be interesting to see who gets cut out of our secondary - but I suppose competition is best for establishing solid players.

Is this just in case Taylor is really as wack out as he seems? To me it seems nobody but Taylor no what the heck is going on in his head.
