bryce40 Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 The Falcons are apparently trying to trade CB DeAngelo Hall to Oakland for a 2nd rd pick. Would we be interested even though we've spent our 1st round picks the last 2 years at CB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott91575 Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 The Falcons are apparently trying to trade CB DeAngelo Hall to Oakland for a 2nd rd pick. Would we be interested even though we've spent our 1st round picks the last 2 years at CB?First of all, hell no. Bad character guy. Not needed on this team, and really no need to spend any more money than minimal on more CB's. Two are already getting 1st round money, and Hall would want at least top 5 CB money.Besides, if Hall agrees to a contract with Oakland it's a done deal.

HoosierCat Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hall's not all that anyhow. Another questionable move by Oakland, if it goes through, IMO.For the Falcons, tho, this really creates an interesting situation if it happens. Not only would they have the third overall, but also something like the 3rd, 6th and 17th picks in the second round. Trade value-wise, that would be enough packaged together to trade back into the top 10. Heck, any two of them would be enough to get back to 15 or so. Or they could sit tight, and with two top second round picks, can go in virtually any direction at the top of round one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BengalszoneBilly Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 No need. We have our own Hall who will be just as good or better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazkal Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I'll Pass because I rather see JJoe and Lhall are CB tandem for next 10 years ,because then you would have wasted 1st and a 2nd for a Nickel CB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I would think the combination of Hall and Asomugha would quite the CB team though...WHODEY !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalszoneBilly Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I would think the combination of Hall and Asomugha would quite the CB team though...WHODEY !!!Without a defensive line capable of providing pressure, they'll only be average at best.

I don't blame him for getting into it with Petrino, who obviously didn't know what he was doing. I really felt Joseph regressed last year instead of improved. Hopefully, Zimmer will make all the difference with him though. Could you imagine having 3 outstanding CB's on this team. And if need be using one of them as trade bait to get an outstanding D-lineman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bengals drafting Ellis at #9, improving the line AND the defensive backfield in one fell swoop. I call this the "Best Case Scenario."

But, man do I hope there is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agreen_112 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 No need. We have our own Hall who will be just as good or better.That's why I like you man, you know what the hell your talking about!!! NO to DeAngelo Hall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already have lots of nice skill guys on both sides of the ball. We just need to stop hanging them out to dry. Fix up the lines, especially D, we'll be mint.

kingwilly Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 D-Hall is going to OAK, so the point is moot.Cal me crazy but I think the Bengals are OK at CB. THe guy I'm most interested in watching in camp(s) is TJ Wright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
711chad Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 for a second round pick heck yea to Hall...we have a bunch of picks in the draft anyway...its only a secong round for a rather proven corner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierCat Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 D-Hall is going to OAK, so the point is moot.Well, it looked like he was, but maybe not now. Reports are that Atlanta and Oakland have agreed on trade comp, but Hall is insisting on a blockbuster new contract -- and the Raiders aren't willing to do it. Al Davis must be back on his meds...

Again, point is moot as SoP won;t pony up for Hall.I actually don't mind Hall. He has huge talent but his ego is even bigger. He needs a coach like Parcells or Coughlin. I could actually see him in NE having some humble pie baked up by Moss at Coach Belichick's home for wayward football players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our boy Adam Schefter claimed Al Davis has instructed his minion to "get this one done...no matter how you have to do it." The problem is there may be no way to get it done as the Raiders have almost no cap room, and not only does Hall want a monster deal but wants Asomugha to get a long-term deal before he commits.

They have NO room for a deal like this. Oh, well, makes good fodder for NFL Network and guys like Schefter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what looked like regression was actually him battling injuries. I know he missed some time and I believe he was battling a foot or ankle injury for a lot of the year. He'll be back this year.

jjakq27 Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Joseph played well at the end of the season. Having Hall progress helped JJ also.We don't need another top dollar corner at this stage. Get help on the D-line first. Spend the money there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
