Comcast: Redskins contact DeAngelo Hall, may have deal within 24 hours

Doe's he have speed? Yes. Does he have talent? Yes. Is he a team player? No. Will he "suddenly" change because he came to the Redskins? That's the question is'nt it? Hall can win you games and he can lose you games with overconfidence or stupid penalties. I've seen it since he was in highschool and he has'nt changed yet. I guess if anybody can control him it would be Greg Blache. Our D'Backs are a close knit group. I wonder how they feel about this? If we sign him I hope I'm wrong, but I think he'll start out alright then become a problem.

You did a great job of summing up my ambivalence. I don't want to add a cancer which messes with the chemistry. But, on the other hand, if he just needs a change of scenery like Randy Moss did, he could be a big help. The guy did make the Pro Bowl twice.
