Hall will be playing free safety this season as opposed to a strict CB. It will take a little time to adjust but once he does I believe he will have more INT's and a better angle of attack to tackle. The position shift will utilize his speed and size more efficiently.

Instead of getting torched one on one as he tends to do, he will now have the advantage of reading the defense and positioning himself in the heart of the offensive movement creating more surprise INT's as well as fast closing tackles.

And who will play CB in his place? So Hall isn't a shutdown CB. He's what the Skins have at the moment. Hope for the best until there's a better option. It could be worse. He could be hurt all the time and a inconsistent player.

Hall recently admitted himself, he is not a great CB. Unfortunately he is the best CB on the Redskins. So I will continue to support him as long as he's here. With that said, I do believe he has the tools to be great. HTTR!

Sounds like a great plan actually..a ballhawking CB that's now able to sit back and just go after the ball instead of trying to cover someone one-on-one.

I'm calling it. He'll have 9 INTs this season.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.

Gotta love the two sides of the D. Hall argument: those that hate him more than the Dallas Cowboys and those who think he is God's answer to the secondary.

I will never understand this rationale.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.

A 199 CB's played last year? I'm surprised there are 199 in the entire NFL.

That's about 6 per team, sounds right

We feed off each other. I dont think even dhalls biggest supporter believes he is headed to the hall of fame nor do i believe his biggest hater believes he should not be playing in the nfl. You are rite though - that is how the two sides sound. Like i said - we feed off each other. I started to dislike him when i started on these message boards. I think i hate the people who believe he is a top notch cb more than i hate him. Lol. My problem with him is that he talks up and down the field. Than he gets burned by the number one wr on a pretty consistant basis. Just like anything you do in life - if you are going to talk the talk than walk the walk. I mean i dont think josh wilson is a great corner but i also dont see the guy tackle his man after an 11 yard catch and than stick his finger out and talk trash??????

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.

There are 64 starting CBs in the league. Dhall is arguably not our #1(and we have secondary issues)...so he is halfway between a #1 and #2, his ranking would be likely be somewhere in the 30-40 zone.
So I will go ahead and say it..Dhall is the #35th best CB in the league right now.
He is worse than almost all #1s and better than most #2s

But talks trash more than any of them.

I hope though that he puts his money where his mouth is this year, plays smart and kicks some ass though.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.

checks the history bubba, i ALWAYS supported resigning carlos, and also said he was the best CB on the market for us when he left. he couldn't catch, but he could cover and tackle, so whatever.

Re: Another D.Hall Thread.

At this point, there's nothing new left to say about Hall, good, bad, ugly, or alien. This is a Redskins issue exclusively, and has been for quite some time.
