Hall agrees to one year deal with skins

ArtMonkDrillz · 11-07-2008, 04:28 PM

Well, now that it's done I just hope I'm wrong about him. :/

You would think it has to. He's a total butthole, but not as much of a joke as Pacman Jones.

Even if he's selfish, you have to think that he would know his career was over if ANOTHER team cut him.

I think the reason they may have signed Hall is because they are tired of seeing Springs and Smoot get up off the field looking like Fred and Grady everytime they make a hard tackle.

There is an interesting paragraph in this article:
ESPN - Cornerback DeAngelo Hall agrees to join Washington Redskins with one-year deal

Quote:

A source close to the Redskins said Hall spoke with Redskins coach Jim Zorn and some of Zorn's assistants before accepting a contract, and that team owner Daniel Snyder met with defensive captains London Fletcher and Cornelius Griffin to gauge their opinion of the move.

This seems like a great team in terms of Management right now. I like that Danny asked the players, but seems like Hall was properly directed to Zorn. That gives me a lot more confidence in the "cancer" factor.

I agree,I hope so to but I really hate these deals with signing a player and HOPING he changes. That's a Cowgirl trademark is'nt it? What the hell, maybe we can sign Vick too when he gets out of jail.

great move. very low risk/ high reward. if he pans out, the skins get a very young corner to replace springs. if not, see ya later after a 7 game try out

He looks familiar. I think I caught him one time.

memphisskin · 11-07-2008, 04:49 PM

Its low risk, if he is focused and healthy he's a playmaker that we can use. If he isn't, he doesn't stick out the year.

As for the #21, Matty that was pretty slick...

D. Hall Welcome Home Great Move Pr/cb

The official GTripp position:

This move has the potential to be good, but more likely will hurt us or just be indifferent.

Well if that happens then it would still be a win for us. I think he just wanted to leave himself some options and I don't think he will see francise tag money with any team no matter how well he plays.

Redskins sign Hall - Redskins 360 - Washington Redskins Commentary - Washington Times The Raiders gave him a seven-year, $70 million contract but quickly became fed up with his poor play and pouting.
