DeAngelo Hall traded to Raiders per ESPN
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3295344
< The Atlanta Falcons have reached an agreement in principle with the Oakland Raiders to trade cornerback DeAngelo Hall for the Raiders' second-round pick in the 2008 draft, pending the Raiders finalizing a contract with Hall, according a source close to the Falcons.
Hall is close to agreeing to a contract with the Raiders that will pay him just below what Asante Samuel signed with the Eagles, according to the source. Samuel signed a six-year deal worth a reported $57 million, with $20 million guaranteed.
Hall, a former first-rounder taken with the eighth pick in the 2004 draft.

I think it is a good trade for the Raiders if he gets his **** together. But look at what happened with Randy.

So wait... Does this mean they will no longer have the money to sign Asomugha?

You would think the Falcons would want a lot more for Hall. But now the Raiders have three good CBs.

Word around all the Giants' blogs and beat writers were Falcons had a deal with us, but Hall wanted too much $ for our tastes.

Hall for a 2nd rounder is a good trade, IMO.
What do they do with Asomugha though?

This trade would now give the Falcons 3 2nd round picks.

Were the Raiders not happy with Washington? Did he not produce this past season?

I guess it makes sense financially. The Raiders figured chances were they weren't going to keep Aso after next season, so have a asty CB duo for one year, and just have Hall take over for Aso season after next. Kinda makes sense actually

Money means nothing to the Raiders...still have to take care of Asomugha and they have to pay the 4th overall pick

If I were a Raiders fan, I'd be pissed if this meant Asomugha had to walk.
If they have to trade Asomugha, well, he should get much more in return than Hall did. Nnamdi is better. But if they do, they have a starting corner I suppose.
If they can keep both, then it's a completely different story and I'd probably be sending many praises to Al Davis' way. If only they didn't overpay for Kelly so much ...

It makes no sense. Aso wouldn't have stayed for the type of money they gave to Hall? I have a hard time believing that.

I love Hall's talent. I think the Giants trading for him would have made a lot of sense, even with the massive contract, but this is just silly for the Raiders IMO.

The Falcons are getting rid of their Viginia/Virginia Tech connections
Why do the raiders like these borderline character guys?
