He probably won't be himself until the middle or later in the season, but still. Getting Hall would be overkill, it'd be similar to the panicky TJ Duckett acquisition.

With the way Smoot and Springs finished the season, there's no reason to panic and say you need to upgrade either one of them. They're both very solid NFL starters. And when Rogers is back to his old self, you'll have 3 solid starters. Even if you think about Hall as a long-term replacement for Springs, you're still chock full of 3 very talented CBs. It's a misallocation of our cap resources. We'd be better off with a Drayton Florence as a decent nickle guy.

Roy Williams however is a HUGE playmaker. He's had some injuries, so that's worrisome. But it sure would beat a loudmouth problem at a position at which we're already in decent shape.

That said, I'd be shocked if a 2009 second rounder would be the high bid for Roy Williams. It will take a 2nd this year, or a 1st next year. And since the teams mentioned here have higher picks than we do, to outbid them we'll either have to give up a 1st this year or a 1st next year. I don't like either option. But Roy would definitely be a WAAY better choice than DeAngelo Hall.

But WE could add Brandon Loyd to the offer
