While I don't put anything dumb past VC, how could draft picks enter into this equation? Hall is a FA this coming offseason. Unless he feels like forfeiting draft picks for the hell of it, this deal comes down to $$ and nothing else.

I really hope we sign him, but not if it chews up the room we need to sign more important positions of need: OL, DL, LB....
