DeAngelo Hall is free, do we go after him? At 24 years old, his one of the best, when his mind is in it. DeAngelo could sign here and hope to show case his skills. I for one would love to sign this guy, we really need a CB and Hall would be the answer. This also would allow us to use our picks on other position, such as WR and D Tackle

Angered by the Oakland Raiders' 2-6 start, team owner Al Davis asked his front office staff to explore the possibility of releasing several players, including cornerback DeAngelo Hall, according to multiple sources.
The Raiders are expected to release Hall on Wednesday, sources told ESPN's Michael Smith.
The team was planning on making the move to release Hall on Tuesday before holding off, according to NFL.com. The Raiders have paid Hall $8 million for eight games, and also gave Atlanta a second-round pick for his services.
NFL.com reported the move to waive him now helps the Raiders avoid paying Hall $16 million worth of injury-guaranteed bonuses in his contract
