D-Hall speculation?

I really think Hall should be given a shot at free safety depending on how the season goes on. He has the necessary ball hawking skills, and considering that he gets burnt as a cornerback it would ease him from that pressure. Also I think a corner like Wilson could benefit from having solid free safety coverage over the top. Also Hall has become pretty good at tackling, so I think he can chip in at run support every now and then.

I'm Worried he'd gamble way too much, he's also not a big hitter nor sound tackler. I'd be worried about him being the last line of defense. I'm not a fan of the move

The real problem with moving Hall to safety is the fact that we don't really have someone to replace him with. Unless you want Cedric Griffin on the field for almost all of the snaps?

A few reasons why it won't work

1) it won't get the pass rush to the QB any faster, which is probably the biggest reason the secondary has been this bad

2) I'm sure somewhere in his mind D Hall thinks he's the best corner in the NFL, meaning I doubt he'd be up for it.

3) like it was said earlier wed be stuck with Cedric Griffin on every down

He already plays some, and now with C.Griffin back he is playing more in the nickel. Keep him in the Charles Woodson position as he can read the QB, contribute to run defense and blitz. He's found his spot, unfortunately they've had issues with the guys on the outside - for Cedric, it's been injury.

Anyone that thinks that Crawford or Murphy should be starting in place of Hall while Hall plays FS should really understand that there is a reason why neither of these guys are starting to begin with. Hall at FS next year could be entertained, but a top tier CB needs to be acquired at some point that will play true man to man coverage and not gamble as much.

Hall has lead the CB's in tackles the last two years and that has been to his credit. Tackling is not his problem.

If he plays like he did in Philly and Dallas trough the whole year he will stay at CB and not be released. Sadly hes an inconsistent player who needs 3 games to really keep his job because of how amazing he does in those 3 games .
