I'd be all about keeping him and extending/restructuring his deal to lower his cap hit.

Then again, every corner on the market this year got vastly overpaid (in my opinion), so maybe hall is getting paid fair market value.

I've often thought about how best to use Hall's great ability. I always thought he could be a great corner. Since college he's drawn the title overated, and I always thought it was his lack of focus & attention to the details. He wants to make the 1 big play more than many small plays that matter.

He wouldn't be a good FS cause he wants to gamble all the time, but is there a nicke/dime package where he could be like a 3rd safety in the middle of the field? Blache used to have the "Cobra" w/3 safeties. Don't know if that's what I'm thinking, I just see Hall being best used to roam towards the ball, not cover per se.
