Hall, Bodden, and Bly have all been traded for at some point in the last two years and then released within the past year. They are all in sort of the same bracket money-wise, which is no where near Gamble/Hayden/franchise corner type-money.

I'd take Hall over Bodden and Bly, personally, but those guys are close enough in skill to where I would take any one of them if they were significantly cheaper than the others.
