DeAngelo Hall

DeAngelo Hall came with lofty expectation as the 2004 8th Overall Pick from Virginia Tech and in the first few years of his career with the Atlanta Falcons he did not disappoint.  Hall was a Pro Bowl Selection for Atlanta in both 2005 and 2006 and he would be traded to Oakland before the 2008 season.  It was a terrible fit for both and he was released and promptly picked up by the Washington Redskins where he would be “DeAngelo Hall” again.

Hall tied an NFL record in 2010 when he had a four Interception game against the Chicago Bears.  Named to the Pro Bowl for the third time that year he would be the Pro Bowl MVP that year.  Late in his career he would switch over to Safety.

As of this writing, Hall is the all-time leader in the National Football League in Fumble Return Yards (328) and also holds that franchise distinction for both the Falcons and Redskins.  He would also net 43 Interceptions and had 10 Touchdowns scored through his defensive plays.
