magnus23 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 We will have to wait the better part of a season for a drafted CB to be able to start .... meaning we will need another "Lewis Sanders" stop gap for this year.And to get a pro-bowl caliber CB would be as much or more than what we can lock up Hall for.His stock has been hurt by his character issues from last year and indirectly by the Falcons poor showing ... so for him to leave now ... he won't get get as much as he thinks he deserves.And in the past ... he has showed some self-control ... Mora 2006 was even able to muzzle him.The Falcons should make him our best deal ... and move on. Mike Smith has already tried to mend fences (per SW yesterday) ... and if Hall respects him ... can keep him reigned in.SIGN HALL - and lets lock up our best players.

I think TD let the cat out of the bag anyway by saying they are exploring trade possibilities. That appears to be a rookie mistake, I do believe, on his part. If you are going to try and trade him, don't tell everybody. Secondly, if they trade Hall, they just open up another hole on this defense. There are already holes right up the middle.

michaelgee Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 SIGN HALL - and lets lock up our best players.Your statement above MIGHT just be how we got into this mess.Our best player wasn't smart enough to NOT be locked up long term.I think we have one too many "Locked UP Players" already.I hope TD drafts and signs more intelligent players so they won't get locked up for long term stretches.I think the VT template has been seen enough.VT has great athletes, maybe they go to VT for a reason, you think??VT players couldn't get into GT, just staing what appears to be a huge VT trend.Michael VickMarcus VickDHallmore... JWilldid any of these guys actually graduate VT?not bashing, just asking a questionseems the NCAA has missed something at VTAT UT Peyton Manning graduated in 3 years, stayed a 4th to play football at his college.gotta give Peyton his due, intelligent dude who can back it up and doesn't trash talk anybody. A true team player and a winner.trash talking might be ok, but if you can't back it up you just look stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Nate Clemments deal and the deal that Assante seems to be looking for, it's certain that Hall will want at least 8 million per year and probably more than that. Let him walk, **** offer him a ride to the airport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red2play Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Will Hall take less money? Will he be willing to put in a cap hit that amounts to less than 6 mil a year? If yes, re-sign himIf no, trade him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnus23 Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Make it about the money .... not about silly interpersonal dynamics.TO was tamed ... Moss behaved ... Mature organization can work through these things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
