6-0 1/2, 308 lbs 49ers attended his Pro Day. Prototypical interior DL for Saleh's scheme and could be someone they grab on day 3 to push Earl Mitchell. I noticed Hall a lot during the Shrine game because he's my type of interior DL: explosive, squatty one-gap penetrator. He has some similarities to my favorite interior DL, Grady Jarrett. DENIED!!!PJ Hall shuts the door and gets the ball back for SHSUSHSU 34, KSU 27 - 4Q Watch the #FCSPlayoffs on the ESPN App pic.twitter.com/9pKAsGjKAU— FCS Football (@NCAA_FCS) December 10, 2017 His NFL.com draft profile: STRENGTHS Staggering production. Dominated his level of competition for four years. Finished with 86.5 tackles for loss and 42 sacks for his career. Compact with explosive power. Has a 700-pound squat to his name. Quick off the snap with early hands. Sharp upward thrust into blocker establishes leverage. Owned point of attack against his competition. Able to brace up against double teams. Equally powerful with upper and lower body. Athletic and rangy as tackler. Drives under and through the guard's edge. Corners tightly to cornerback once he's in the pocket. Able to push pocket as bull rusher. Eyeballs quarterback and mirrors his scramble for secondary sacks. His 14 career blocked kicks is unheard of. WEAKNESSES Tried to carry additional weight which may have slowed him this year. Squatty and lacking NFL length. Motor ran hot and cold at times. Additional weight appeared to impact conditioning and fatigue levels. Faced very few opponents who could match his strength on FCS level. Fails to feel and brace for down blocks and can be big-boyed out of the gap by size. DRAFT PROJECTION Rounds 6-7 NFL COMPARISON Rakeem Nunez-Roches BOTTOM LINE What Hall lacks in height, weight and length, he makes up for with power and quickness. Hall has the quickness and strength to be disruptive against the run and pass as a shade nose or reduced front three-technique. His level of production in every category imaginable could foreshadow his ability to translate into the NFL, but he will have to prove he can maintain his weight and stand up to the rigors of the interior with bigger men across from him.

Welp, so much for that.

Sam Houston State DL P.J. Hall is expected to be a day two pick, according to NFL Media's Mike Garafolo. Hall's pro day workout was hailed as one of the "best ever by a non-combine prospect https://t.co/JvCRs0e2as pic.twitter.com/78Re7kTfIs

Hard to swallow a DT1T on day 2. But I'd do it depending on who is still on the board

Sheldon Day would punk this dude

Don't forget about Blair as well. I wouldn't mind being Douzable back either, thought he played solid.
