Should we court Hall?

As it is being widely reported, the Oakland Raiders have cut DeAngelo Hall and are just awaiting a press conference to make it official.

With the ravaging our DBs have taken (Bowman and McGowan on IR, Tillman, Vasher, and Manning all missing time), is it worth pursuing Hall?  He's got talent and he would require us to pay him much, but what kind of locker room presence would he be and can he operate well in a Cover-2 based scheme?

Given how often we seem to be wondering if we have enough healthy corners to run a nickel package, it might be worth looking into, if expectations are set properly by both parties.
