Cons

  • Medical concerns from a broken ankle
  • Backpedal needs to be more fluid
  • Dropped a lot of potential INTs
  • Doesn’t attack blockers very well against the run
  • Wrap up as a tackler is poor
  • Lacks finishing as a tackler
  • Doesn’t have long speed
  • Mirroring out of press needs work
  • Will decelerate when turning, allowing faster WRs to blow by
  • Struggles to follow complex route combinations
  • Lateral transition is a mess

Overview

If Bryce Hall didn’t have the medical or tackling concerns, he would likely be the No. 2 corner in this draft class. He has the desired traits in coverage to be effective, especially in off-coverage. Hall has really good length which he uses to its max to contest the catch point and make receivers' lives difficult. 

There is a concern about his tackling, but he flashes the potential. He just needs to be more consistent with his finish. With all the traits that Hall brings, he is going have a lot of interested suitors and betting on their ability to make his tackling consistent.
