Hall and Taylor were both SEC standouts, and now they’re both part of the Seahawks’ pass rush rotation.
. Not only did Hall defy the odds, by age 9 he was playing tackle football.
At 6’3 and 255-pounds, Hall comes in a little bit lighter than fellow SEC edge rusher Darrell Taylor, who’s racked up 16 sacks over the past two seasons. Mike Salk wondered if Hall would have a similar playing style to Taylor, but Cubelic views Hall’s strength, speed, and explosiveness as superior. “I really liked Darrell Taylor coming out and I liked him at Tennessee,” he said. “Taylor feels much more like a four-down defensive end than a 3-4 edge defender, which is how I would classify Derick Hall. I think Derick Hall’s going to have a little bit more explosiveness, a little bit more twitch, a little bit more speed. I think he’s just a stronger football player in general.
You can listen to the full interview below and get a little more insight on Seattle’s newest pass rusher, as the Seahawks continue to rebuild what’s been a struggling front in recent seasons. As I said earlier, it’s hard not to root for Hall and I hope he can continue his college success in the pros. The fact that he’s even alive is a miracle in itself, let alone just a few months away from playing in the NFL.
