I like this idea though my intuition is a restructure w/ us is more likely because some franchise will pick up Hall on a 3 yr contract.

And the 1.625% has you leaning where? Also I have no problem with adding Schmitt. We were carrying 2 FBs last year and it's not as if Darrell Young is Vonta Leach.

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

Darrel Young had some bad tape last year. He's clearly talented and has upside, but...is a fullback.

My thinking is that his suitors were relatively limited back in 2009 when if nothing else, he was pretty young for a free agent CB. He's still got plenty of ability left, but there's no one playing a lot more cover two anymore than the Redskins and the Steelers (and Bears), and Hall's kind of made himself into a cover two CB. So I'm pretty confident we'd get him on a one year deal if we cut him.

Chicago's GM was in Atlanta when Hall was there, so that could be an interesting angle. I'm not saying I know what they would do either. I just know that the teams who would be interested in Hall would be minimal. He hasn't exactly turned his reputation around since he's been here.

Bottom line is, if he actually wants to be here, and we're going to let him start, then this is the only opportunity he's got in the NFL like that, meaning the Redskins can pick their price. And IMO, they should.

Darrel Young hasn't impressed me much outside of some decent blocks.

Well isn't that the role of a fullback?

Young will be the starter. Schmitt may not even make the final roster

Daryl Young is a solid young full back in my opinion, however I didn't watch much of his blocking, but I did see his great juking and run after the catch ability..very impressive for a former LB.
