News has come out that big money trade acquisition DeAngelo Hall is already moaning and groaning.
Hall claims he has a broken bone in his hand and shouldn't even be practicing or playing.
When asked whether it was his decision to practice and play, Hall said, "It aint my choice. I'm employee 23 so I do what I'm told."

If this guy would just play as hard as he complains

What a waste. Raiders got a real winner in this guy!
In case your reading this and can't tell, I'm not a big DeAngelo Hall fan. Overrated bum, that's what he is.

Ya but he could overcome that injury, have a good season and show everyone.

He's dogging it. He's a relentless trash talker but a horrible cover corner. One of THE most overrated players in the league. They should let him borrow Elvis Patterson's old nickname, "Toast", because he get's burnt so doggone much.

He can't cover to save his life. Maybe a move to free safety where he can utilize his speed and possibly hit hard would be better for him. I never thought Hall was overrated because it seems like he's the only one who thinks that he's an elite NFL player.

You guys are exagerating, sure he may be over paid, but "cant cover for his life".

Go back two years ago, I believe it was, and watch film of the Bengals-Falcons game. Hall ran his mouth constantly about Chad Johnson, how he was gonna totally shut him down. Johnson just blew past him on every play. It was downright embarrassing. I know Ocho Cinco is good, but no starting NFL cornerback should get schooled that bad. So, yeah, I stand by my opinion. He is the most overrated cover corner in the league, maybe of all time.

Well, like you said, Chad is a fantastic reciever. I completely understand that how he was running his mouth just to get showed up. However, he had to get to where he is now somehow. You don't just come in as a rookie and suddenly your overpaid and overated. I will rspect your opinion that you believe he is the most overrated corner in the league, but, some people here were saying how bad he was. I would not say he is bad. He is a 2-time pro bowler, after playing only 4 NFL seasons. Although 2007 might not have been his greatest year, he is still not bad.

Back to the point of the topic, if he truly is hurting, maybe people should just give him the benefit of the doubt this time.

Hall's past hasn't earned him the benefit of a doubt. He's a lazy malcontent jaker who will eventually talk himself out of the NFL.
