Why not?? (1 Viewer)

Why wouldn't we trade our 1st to the Falcs for D Hall? Definite upgrade and, with our vets, should't be a prob with attitude? Any objections?

Because he's not worth #10 overall. He's worth a late second at best.

i wouldnt oppose it actually, many on these boards hate hall but i think having hall and mckenzie in the backfield would be a great thing.



i see CB being THE MOST important need of ours right now.

I'd only do that if they gave us their 2 second round picks with him.

I really don't think we'll add any other significant CBs having signed Gay.

 

[DefensePlease]

not if he wants the huge contract that we wernt willing to give samuel. it would be stupid to give a huge contract and a first rounder.....

Can't give the enemy more ammo.

If we wanted to throw lots of money away like that we would have just signed Samuel and not give up a 1st Rounder. He is gonna want a monster contract.

I don't know but I don't think everyone realizes how quickly we can run through cap space. We don't have the details on the contract yet of course, but given our propensity to front-load deals it seems likely Gay's deal is big enough to preclude a monster deal like Hall is expecting.

I guess if you really want a player something just about always can be worked out (unless you're the Redskins this year), but the more likely outcome is we're largely done at the CB position until maybe the draft.

I would take him if we give them our 1st round in exchange for hall and their 3rd. Their will be enough talent in the draft to get a TE, OLB, S, and/or DT with the 42 65 and 74th overall picks. he wont recieve as much as Samuel no matter where he goes. hes definatly worth a 1st rounder, after all Atlanta selcted him #8 overall i think in 2004.

 

[Nonreg]

not worth it.

Yeah. The only positions I really see us upgrading are TE (hopefully Troupe), WR (Patten) and DT if we can work out a trade.

It's looking more and more like we'll target one of the top CB's or DT's. My personal hope is that we move up for one of the DT's (cue REALCHRISM yelling at me about how we won't have to move up ).
