I'm not sure as a Dolphins fan if I'd want him or not,If I could get him for the Veteran Min. Maybe....

Davis and other front-office members met Tuesday to discuss the possibility of purging the roster of several high-profile players, including cornerback DeAngelo Hall and wide receiver Javon Walker, two people close to the situation confirmed.

I wouldn't take either one... We don't need industrial strength head cases poisoning this team.

Miami does not need no overpriced players.  I will settle on the Draft

I think we should be on a two year plan.  If any player is clearly not going to be contributing in 2 seasons, we shouldn't sign them.  (not counting players already on our roster)

I'd be OK with Hall.  He's a nice corner who's on strike two.  Sometimes, those guys grow up once they realize it's their last chance.  A 3 year incentive laden deal wouldn't be so bad.  Plus, he's young.

Sparano and Parcells might be able to straighten Hall out for much less money.

If there's one guy who won't put up with Hall, or anyone, being a locker room cancer, it's Parcells.

Hall cleared waivers, so that mean's he's a FA.  Hopefully the Triumvirate will sign him and put their foot up his ass.  He's an elite corner, top 10 in the league when his game is on.  He just needs the right kind of structure to be successful, and we can provide that

Ex-Raiders CB Hall agrees with Redskins on 1-year deal

By John Clayton

Updated: November 7, 2008, 2:41 PM ET

 Even though DeAngelo Hall wanted to take the weekend to consider 15 or more scenarios for a new team, the cornerback decided Friday to accept a one-year deal from the Washington Redskins, according to his agent, Joel Segal.

According to a source, Hall agreed to a one-year deal that is worth $492,000 for the remainder of the season.

The Raiders released Hall on Wednesday, eight games into a seven-year, $72 million contract.

He walked away with $8 million this year and a chance to sign with a new team.

The New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints and Pittsburgh Steelers were among the teams most active in trying to recruit Hall.

The Redskins are on a bye, so Hall won't make his first appearance in a Redskins uniform until next week.

Damn Parcells, you missed out on something good here!!!

Looks like the Skins got a solid replacement for the late Sean Taylor.
