I thank Leon Hall for all he did for the Bengals. But I also thank the giants for signing him. Hall at this point cannot cover on the outside, making him a slot corner only. Last year he got by with his experience, but the experience could not make up for the physical deterioration he has suffered. By the end of the season, I observed him playing a step behind on a great majority of his snaps. And if you recall, it was Hall who got his ankles broken by brown on the steelers 4th down conversion after Hill's fumble. You are only going to see more of that this season. Again, loved Leon, but he is an older, slower CB with both Achilles repaired and coming off back surgery. The only thing we are missing out on by him going to NY is the experience he could mentor our young CBs with on the sideline. He was not going to be an effective cover option on the field.
