Player Review: Roy Hall

JUST IR HIM ALREADY!

He’ll be a mix of Randy Moss, Jerry Rice, Don Maynard, Brian Westbrook, Johnny Unitas, Michael Strahan and Jesus. He’ll be the greatest player of all-time.

Just kidding. He’ll be the third one.

Hall made a nice play on STs during that onside kick….Adam V had the little tap while Hall in my opinion blasted the Titan player to get to ball loose for the Colts to pick up. Besides him be injury prone, he has shown that he’ll do whatever even if it involves popping other opponents on STs.

He’s an enigma. Guy who nobody notices, isn’t invited to the draft, looks like you took Fitzgerald and Boldin and mixed them in a pot together but made him weigh 240 lbs and run a 4.35 40, and do 19 reps and look like a LB. And then….plop. I think there’s good reason for Polian to love the guy. I also think that the more they keep talking about drafting a WR, the more I think it’s misdirection.

Just watch how insane he looks running that 40. He’s more diesel than the cut up dudes I make in Madden as superstars. He’s got that Calvin Johnson “You’ve goto be kidding me, nobody moves like that and is that big” thing going for him. From just that clip though, it looked like he was catching the ball too close to his body though. Just a quick opinion because I haven’t seen much of him. He didn’t look fluid on the ones he extended his arms for. So he could either end up being a hybrid with Boldin’s body on steroids, but Braylon Edwards hands. That’d be sad.

I’d have to see his other numbers, but his stats seem along the lines with Gonzalez. Gonzo had 20 reps, 4.44 (though he was clocked in the 4.36-38 range often). But Gonzalez isn’t 6’3 240 lbs. I really do hope he gets healthy, I want to see him play. Not his fault he played when Ginn and Gonzalez were. Gonzo probably told them about him, hah.

I don’t even know where he’d fit in even if Harrison wasn’t playing. I mean, you could put him in the slot and toast linebackers and safeties with his speed, but you’d want to take advantage that he can outrun pretty much almost any corner and make them look like kids trying to stop him. Total question mark from me. But the dude wasn’t even invited to the combine and he’s been hurt. We have the dude for pennies for at least 2 more seasons. And no other team’s going to be begging for him right now. With the potential he has, I have no problem seeing what he can do. None at all. In fact, I’d be excited to actually see him play in a game with importance and not on ST.

on one hand, I have been ACHING to see him in action. I want to see if he really could be a serious weapon in our receiving corps..

on the other hand..
I’m a little afraid of getting my expectations up. He hasn’t proved anything but that he’s big and fast.

I wonder, if he would have been healthy, if he could have been worked in on the DL. :P

How come the Colts never thought about using him as a kickoff or punt returner? If he has that speed that people say he does along with that freak of nature body type, why not give him a shot. Im assuming though they tried during practice or what not, so what do I know.
