I know a lot of athletes that never quit. Problem is that they aren't talented or athletic enough to make a difference.

If Tamba Hali didn't have a high motor, he'd be selling insurance in State College.
This guy in another thread told me Cromartie was no better than Hali so lets get an idea of his starting point.

This is a debate about a player that's been in the NFL for 3 years and frankly sucks.
C'mon now. His fluid hips and vertical will lead him to do great things in a scheme he's never played in before.

I can't believe we're having this discussion about Eric Hicks, err Tamba Hali.

Sanchez hasn't even been drafted yet, and has far more upside and talent than you give him credit for.

Tamba Hali has already played in the NFL. For 3 seasons. Last season he demonstrated how pitiful he is when he doesn't have a 15-sack 4-3 DE on the other side of the line helping him out. He's PROVEN that the NFL is too big for him to find success in. Sanchez hasn't proven anything yet... might be an all-pro, he might be a bust. Whatever he is, he has far more upside in his future NFL career than Hali.

If Tamba Hali is fluid the guys who can really move must not even have a word...

I like Boomer Grigbsy a lot. He has a good motor and works hard. He'll be a good safety when we switch defensive schemes.

40 times are nice, but they're not useful for evaluating current NFL players, really.
Well then what was his 225 rep?

Tamba Hali in the 3-4? That is not very sensible.

The only way he'd be a stud in the 3-4 is if they told him he was back in Africa and handed him a gun and told him he could shoot the opposing players.

As a rookie, he didn't have a 15 sack guy helping him out. You know, the year he led the Chiefs in sacks.

I am not saying he is Jared Allen. In fact, it is clear that he is not a premier DE in a 4-3.

But, I think he will be a good fit for the 3-4.

Hali could play outside in a 3-4, no doubt about it. Will he be great? Who knows. He's played standing up before...

But, but mecca says....

as usual someone said an opinion and mecca and TBG are first on scene to bash the idea. I have no idea if hali would be good or not, I know he's done good standing up before, and I know he's got the build to be an OLB in a 3-4. So of course that stands to reason that he may be able to do it. I don't care if he does or not, but it will be interesting to watch if the coaches try it.

why is that so hard to accept?

Because he runs like a slug.
