Alabama Mario Who? Giants' D.J. Hall Makes Biggest First Day Impact

Mario Who? Giants' D.J. Hall Makes Biggest First Day Impact - FanHouse - AOL Sports Blog

Tom Coughlin and the New York Giants certainly do have an interesting dilemma facing them this offseason. For the first time in many years, they won't be struggling to find quality depth at the wide receiver position. Instead, they'll be struggling to find enough room on their roster for the impressive amount of depth they suddenly do have.

And although it's only been one day since rookie mini-camp opened, that task appears to have become a little bit harder.

According to Ralph Vacchiano of The Blue Screen, undrafted rookie free agent D.J. Hall from Alabama stole the show with several impressive catches and an amazing display of natural athleticism.
Hall made several outstanding catches, including one leaping, fully stretched grab along the sidelines in the afternoon. A few times he had to leap to make the catch and not only did, but seemed to hit the ground and keep moving without missing a stride. He was smooth, he had good hands and at 6-2, 195, has decent size. On any other team, I'd say he was a free-agent steal.
With all the talk about Mario Manningham and his great value in round three, many people overlooked the signing of D.J. Hall. But if value picks and value signings really are what makes a team great, then it looks like General Manager Jerry Reese has hit the jackpot again.

It's good to hear and I hope it all works out well for him, but I'll have to see how he acts day in, day out before I can be a believer. Hall's got all the talent in the world, but can't get out of his own way.

it's interesting to how players that dominated the SEC do well in the NFL. they don't always coorelate. i don't think we've had a dominate player in the NFL since Alan Faneca.

He's got a "package" tied up in his basement I'm sure.

Maybe this will be a positive learning experience for DJ. Maybe he will start to appreciate his own talent from an adult viewpoint. I think this is where he always wanted to be, but his immaturity propelled him the wrong way, at times. I hope things go well for him and he handles and appreciates that success like a man...not a petulant child. I am very much looking forward to seeing some great plays by DJ in the upcoming NFL season.
