Hall denies Raiders trade

[Hostile]

The reason he didn't go to the Giants was because even though they offered a 1st rounder when they started talking money with Hall they weren't willing to pay him top 5 CB money.

If he wants a deal right below Asante he wants top 2 money. Grand theft salary if he gets it.

Newman is going to ask for a lot of money regardless of what Oakland pays for Catfish Hall.

Looks like the Raiders are willing to pay Hall big $$. I wonder if he is looking for a lot more?

The Raiders source said the deal is expected to pay Hall just below what Asante Samuel signed with the Eagles. Samuel signed a six-year deal worth a reported $57 million, with $20 million guaranteed.

Yup, newman is already 1 of the best CB's in the NFL..

Catfish only thinks he is. If you could buy him for what he is worth and sell him for what he thinks he is worth you'd be wealthy indeed.

HALL DENIES THAT TRADE IS CLOSE
Posted by Mike Florio on March 15, 2008, 11:09 p.m.
Amid reports that the Atlanta Falcons are close to trading cornerback DeAngelo Hall to the Oakland Raiders, Hall respectfully disagrees — and identifies the other teams at are or were in the hunt for services.

“As of right now, we’re still at the same stages that I was at with every other team,” Hall said, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “New York, Washington, Dallas, and Jacksonville. Nothing has been OK’d on my end. Unless they agreed to something that I don’t know about, but I don’t think no team is going to sign me without talking to me and getting everything right on my end.”

Hall declined to confirm or deny that he was in Oakland on Friday to meet with Raiders officials.

Per the AJC and others, the deal is indeed close. And the AJC says that the Falcons will get a second-round pick and a sixth-round pick in the 2008 draft.

Since Hall is signed only through 2008, it’s likely that any team that acquires his services via trade will want to simultaneously extend his contract. Previously, there were rumors that Hall wanted a deal worth at least $10 million per year; the contract given by the Eagles to cornerback Asante Samuel on the first day of free agency averages $9.5 million annually.
