Cleveland Browns rookie defensive tackle Michael Hall Jr. gets a very-high level comp from teammate Za'Darius Smith
First-round draft picks tend to get all the love during the NFL offseason, especially the initial set of quarterback prospects who come off the board early. Nevertheless, every year there are several rookies who were not taken until Day 2 who pop off right away. One of them could be playing in Cleveland, if his teammates have anything to say about it.has been impressed enough by rookie defensive tackle Michael Hall Jr.
Browns DE Za’Darius Smith on rookie Mike Hall Jr.: “He’s different, man. He reminds me of Aaron Donald a little bit. Hopefully he don’t see this.”That's a pretty high bar to set and not entirely fair to Hall, even if Smith only means that he reminds him of AD in very specific ways. It would take at least a decade of balling out at an elite level for Hall to truly be in the same conversation as Donald, in any case.
Whether Hall turns out to be an instant game-breaker or just an average rookie trying to make his way, the Browns should have one of the better defensive lines in the NFL this year. Headlined by superstar edge Myles Garrett, their edge rotation is ranked second-best in the league
