Hey I wanted Jimmy Williams, but Hali is a darn good pick. Lawson is overrated IMO. Hali brought it everyweek in the Big Ten. We need another DE, he is the opposite of what Jared Allen does. Good pick and adding more talent to our defense.

Jimmy Williams is a nutcase. That said, I like him as a player.

Now when Eric Hicks is still starting this year everyone will wonder why this pick was bad.....

Maybe more like 20
Dave The production as a pass rusher just hasn't been there. He needs to work on his pass rush moves to be more effective at getting to the quarterback. Experience is really the key for Hali. He still has a lot to learn about the game, overall, instead of strictly relying on his physical ability to help him make plays. While he did play two years at the defensive tackle position, he really didn't have the bulk or the strength to hold up at the position as a pro. He will still struggle even the even at the end position if a team decides to run right at him. Despite his athleticism, Hali has limited pass rush moves. He makes more plays based on his ability to overpower college tackles and with his hustle. Hali also lacks the pure size to be a prime draft pick. When facing NFL sized tackles, he has shown the ability to be neutralized and taken out of plays. Does not have great size and is a little on the short side...His timed speed is nothing to get excited about...Lacks a wide variety of pass rush moves...Has short arms and doesn't use his hands well...Can be engulfed by bigger offensive lineman and double teams...Made a lot of his plays rushing off the edge...Maxed out and probably doesn't have the frame to get much bigger than he already is.

Plus I personally would rather have good DE's and iffy corners over good corners and iffy DE's. Even then, Herm has a pretty good track record of drafting DB's in the later rounds, I'd bet there are guys down the road here that he's got an eye on. |

I love this pick! Can't wait to see Tamba Hali and Jared Allen lined up...two non-stop motors! Hopefully we can get another good DT in the draft.
For those that think we should have traded down...remember last time we traded down and ended up with Siavii's fat ass instead of Olshansky?? Why take the risk?
