D`angelo Hall

[Reed_4_President]

He WANTS OUT of Atlanta BAD!!. Does anyone think we should try and get him? possibly give them a draft pick or two?. Would be nice to get him and replace Samari Rolle as our starter or get rid of him all together.. I believe i heard he has a year or so left on his contract or maybe that was someone else and would most likely be a falcon 1 more year but maybe we could get him this year? if we really wanted to.. and i am sure he would be more then willing to be a RAVEN.

Anyones response towards this?. BTW Samari Rolle is a GREAT GUY but his EPILEPSY IS A BIG BIG PROBLEM.. even though they said on NFL NETWORK he was cleared of epilepsy for the season.. doesn't mean anything to me.

Heck last year after he missed a few games they said he would be "ok" after that.. and ended up missing basically the rest of the season which HURT US BAD and he was still making the BIG BUCKS!, the big bucks that we could have used for a GOOD player!!.

He's available for a late 1st round pick. All we have is an early 1st and that's way too much for Hall. Plus there is no way in Hall (got it? ) we can afford to pay another player about 10 million bucks per year, which is what Hall might be asking for. He's good, but we don't have the money right now.

I believe he has another yr on his rookie contract though and that would be all we would have to pay him for that yr

If OGDEN is gone we wont have the money to sign hall? hrm..

[Reed_4_President]

WOW, sorry for going off SUBJECT but i just looked on the RAVENS website and we have never BEAT the PATS since we became an ORGANIZATION in `96 we have beat "EVERY TEAM" in the NFL at least one time except for the PATS!. NOW that CHEATED loss we got last year makes me even more ANGRY still to this day lol.

[Bullrush]

Ogden already re-structured his contract. If he decides to retire that's probably gonna free up like 2-3 millions or something like that. Not that big of a deal.

Tell that to Rex "take a time out!" Ryan.

Tell that to Rex "take a time out!" Ryan.

LMAO if only i could.. if only i could. But then again he would say what do you expect me to do!? you would be mad if i didn't call it and they converted the down, or get mad at me for calling the timeout since we stopped them and had the game won.

[Reed_4_President]

I think we SHOULD LET OGDEN GO. 2 or 3 million or whatever it is, is STILL ALOT of money to me! to help go towards other GREAT PLAYERS!!. He is getting OLD and is not HEALTHY ANYMORE.. no matter what he says you can just tell!. And that TOE injury will never heal properly with how big he is.. he just wont be the same OGDEN ever again that we all were use to seeing.. we mine as well persuade him into retirement and save up 3 or 4 $million give SUGGS the money he is crying about and use the rest towards some other GREAT GEMS out there!.

[bmorefan80]

I don't think the Falcons will trade Hall at all. Then again we are talking about Arthur Blank. I just don't see them trading a young talented corner for a draft pick or another talented corner. Trading talent for talent doesn't make any sense at all. I see him sticking it out until his contract expires. Who knows though, anything is possible, this is the NFL.

[Raven07]

that could be the case here with him, but i doubt it simply because of how much of a Profile player he is and how much he's brought this whole "wanting to be Traded or released" deal/issue. i mean now even if he wanted to say, there would be talk around the falcons complex about him and his allegence to the falcons and how much of a distraction he can or more so COULD become.......he's really blown everything into a huge thing, when really is wasnt supposed to be that. and with that said, i think they will have no other choice on there own behalf.

[PuppyPuncher]

He'll want to be the highest paid cornerback, and he's too much of a pain the butt. Then when we sign him, he's getting paid more than McAlister and yet C-Mac is still probably our #1 CB. That could complicate things.

[Raven07]

the fact that he wants to be paid big bucks while at the same time wants out of Atlanta....only implifies even further that he is highly un-likely because we simply dont have the CAP space right now...so unless he wants to become a total team player and take a pay cut...i doubt he will come here for the most obvious of reasons.

[Ravens_Pwn12]

I believe he has another yr on his rookie contract though and that would be all we would have to pay him for that yr

there asking for a trade

[Raven07]

and a high trade i would expect...that or some teams first picks of this upcoming NFL draft and next year's or something of that particular nature. either way...its going to be somewhat costly for the team who wants him the most. but the Ravens cant afford that type of guy either way you look at it. so i think we're safe unless he decides to go with a team for alot less money or something.

THING IS this is the SECOND straight year HALL has COMPLAINED ON WANTING OUT!! BAD. After awhile i am sure they will start to get sick of it and let him go for a few picks in the draft. I mean it worked with McGahee.... Sooner or later they will get it THREW there THICK skulls he hates being a FALCON and he will go bye bye which i see it coming very very soon mark my words.

[Raven07]

i think its all based upon what the Team really wants to do and if a team doesnt feel as though they can or could get the right deal to happen for the trade for Hall and what not...then you wont see anything of the sort happening, but then again, if the right chance and opportunity comes along, then you very well will see something in the works. but this is a proven fact that has been proven time and time again......if a Team feels they wont or cant get what they want from another team for exchange of their own players duties and responsibilities.....it wont happen, despite what reports say......i think a prime example of this is also the whole Chad Johnson deal, if you really sit down and think about it.

Im hoping things get real sour between now and the draft between him and the falcons. I hope he start using words like "hold out" and "Baltimore".

[Raven07]

lol maybee....but its unlikely..but the fact remains though...anything is possible. so i guess it COULD happen. just dont get your hopes up. i mean at the pro Bowl Chad was seen wearing a Baltimore Raven Offical Team hat and was hanging out with Ray and Reed and all them..and rumors started rerupting from different sources about a possbile release and us picking him up as a Free Agent or trade to baltimore. but again the bengals have repeatedly said they intend on keeping Chad a Bengal and that he isnt going anywhere...so lets not get all that excited until they actually do something that even is in our direction lol.

yeah, i blame espn for continually running the clip.

Espn got my hopes up on mcnabb talk...CURSE DISNEY!! and their false hopes!!!

[Raven07]

its those types of things that those analysts and Broadcasting stations take in and turn into something more so than what it was actually meant out to be......i mean Chad could have just been wearing it just for the heck of it. and what did those sports stations do? saw that and blew it up.....in the words of Rich Eisen when seeing chad wearing a Baltimore Ravens Hat...."there may be something more to this"......its those types of statements in which cause all the talk, all the controversy and all the conflict within the football community.

[Ravens_Pwn12]

i been saying the same thing for months... I would like it to happen... BUT IT'S Not Going to happen

[Raven07]

right lol especially considering how we are tight on money right now, thats why we havent been all that much an "active" part in Free Agency. and like i said before, unless he wants to take a pay cut and become a complete team player (not just for a few or so weeks of the season) then i dont see him becoming a Baltimore Raven.
