Rams Find Return Specialist

The Rams finally found a well-established return specialist when they traded for Dante Hall, but now the question is which guy did they acquire?
Hall is a big-play threat who is still very explosive, but his production has been down the past couple years and is coming off a rough season in Kansas City where he didn’t mesh well with Herm Edwards after feeling a comfort level under Dick Vermeil.
Hall definitely needed a change of scenery. He didn’t play with the same reckless abandon in 2006 that he did a few years ago. With his small frame, some league officials feel he could be breaking down physically despite not hitting 30 years old yet.
It will be interesting to watch this season if Hall has a rebirth in St. Louis. Even if Hall doesn’t return to his former level of production, they should finally have some stability in the return game.
In other league news, the Seattle Seahawks added some depth with the addition of former Rams’ defensive end Brandon Green. Green should offer a some depth as a pass rusher with his quick feet and motor, but offers little else. He’s a liability against the run so he possesses a lot of limitations. The Seahawks were looking to have another veteran behind Patrick Kerney, Bryce Fisher, and Darryl Tapp in their defensive end rotation.
