Flowery Branch – Washington cornerback DeAngelo Hall, while speaking to the Washington media on Thursday, fired a shot at Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff.

“I didn’t trust Dimitroff at all,” Hall said. “He lied to me several times. He promised me he was going to get something done [on a contract] and he’s behind my back trying to shop me at the draft."

In his first major move, Dimitroff traded Hall to the Oakland Raiders on March 7, 2008 for a second round and fifth round pick. Hall, a two-time Pro Bowler, with the Falcons was later cut by the Raiders and signed by the Redskins.

Hall was not in the rebuilding plans as the new regime wanted to address the offense in their first year.

Dimitroff declined to comment about Hall's contentions.
