Every established No. 1 receiver in the NFL can burn D'Angelo Hall with consistency. We do have a need for a player with his skill set (i.e. top end No. 2 corner), but that skill set should cost us roughly a 4th round pick, and 3-4 million dollars a year.

Because D. Hall can run his mouth and alienate his coaches, it masks the fact that he isn't, nor will ever be a great player. He's got better speed than Carlos Rogers, but Rogers is more technically sound and has been developing better year to year than Hall, and some people on this board still think he's a bust. If that's the case (and it's opinional), then how is Hall not reaching bust territory.

Pro bowls are good for nothing except artificially inflating value. D. Hall is looking for 20 mil guaranteed somewhere, and that's more money than I'd be willing to give him in total.

Wow, I guess you're not a member of the D. Hall fan club are you? He's a little better than you are giving him credit for. He was as close to a shutdown corner in '05 & '06 as there was in the NFC but had a terrible '07, as did the entire Falcon team. He's always been a "me" guy and that won't likely change, but that doesn't impact his skill set between the white lines. If he's wearing the maroon and black next hear, he instantly becomes our best CB, yes better than Springs and Smoot because of his big play ability and the ability to shut down the oppoents top WR on any given Sunday.

True. I'm a Hokie fan but never cared for D. Hall. However, he's a very good corner that played on one the worst teams last year. Despite that, he managed 21 passed defensed and 70 tackles. I wouldn't be pleased if we got him but wouldn't complain for very long if he was signed.

You think Cooley deserves to be a one time pro bowler at this point in his career?

He's gotten jobbed at least once, probably twice because the pro bowl is a stupid popularity contest, and Cooley isn't nearly as popular among non-Redskins fans as Shockey is among non-Giants fans, or Witten is among non-Cowboy fans.
