16 MAR - 2008

1) Hall headed to Raiders?

The latest word is teams are near on compensation to send D'Angelo Hall from the Falcons to teh Raiders. This would give the Raiders an amazing CB tandem with Asomugha. A 2nd and 6th round pick is what I am hearing as compensation, but I don't know why Atlanta wouldn't ask to include either Fabian Washington or Stanford Routt in the package as well. They will need CB's and surely their value reduces with Hall on the Raiders roster.

2) Manningham Makes his Move

Quick to silence critics, Mario Manningham went out and ran in the 4.4's at the Michigan Pro Day. Welcome to the middle of the first round Mario! Perhaps he will learn in future that preparing to run the combine drills is vital.

3) Brunell a Saint

Mark Brunell keeps his career going in New Orleans after signing on to be Drew Brees caddy. Brunell was considered a chance to land back in Green Bay (where he started his career), but perhaps the warmer climate was the deciding factor.
