    i remember about a month ago there being a debate about whether hall was worth $70 million.

    "And what did the Raiders get? One of the most overrated defensive backs in recent league history.

    One of the great "SportsCenter" highlights of Hall's career is from a game against the Steelers in 2006. You remember that -- when Pittsburgh wide receiver Hines Ward sprinted past Hall for a spectacular 70-yard touchdown catch and run. What's so remarkable about that play? Ward was missing one shoe.

    And that play was unusual. Most opposing receivers beat Hall deep while still wearing both shoes."

    "On the final day of the 2006 season, the Falcons' hapless secondary was torched for a career-high 324 yards and three TDs by Eagles backup quarterback A.J. Feeley. Hall didn't spend much time covering anybody that day, but he certainly made an impression on Eagles receiver Donte' Stallworth.

    "He called me a bum," Stallworth said. "He kept saying he's been to two Pro Bowls and I haven't been to any. Well, this bum is going to be in the playoffs next week while that two-time Pro Bowler is out on the golf course." '

    that last bit is pretty funny stuff.

    The only remarkable thing about Hall is his mouth. He's never shown consistent ability as a corner...

    Yup. He has a superstar mouth and nothing else. It's a miracle anybody wanted him, but this is the same team that gave Tommy Kelly 50 mil.

    Maybe he's the best salesman of all time. He knows how to lose and get paid. And he is done working before the new year even begins usually. Not a bad for the ol' pay/work ratio. More skills than we think..just not on the field.

    You get paid even more for making the playoffs, and you get bonuses each round you advance... And for most people, they would extra incentives in their contracts. So it's not the best money move to play for losing teams.

    i dont care what you all say. the raiders are going to have one of the sickest nickel packages in the league. i think they made the right move because their defense is a top 5 defense in my book.
