University of Alabama receiver DJ Hall said this afternoon he has agreed to join teammate Wallace Gilberry as a free-agent signee with the New York Giants. Hall was also considering an offer from the Detroit Lions.

"They just seemed the most interested, willing to take a chance," Hall said. "I'm not the person that's going to turn a lot of things down. I just want the opportunity, and they're giving it to me."

Hall, who had a record-breaking career at Alabama, was among the Crimson Tide contingent shut out of this weekend's draft. Former teammates expressed the most surprise about Hall, whose collegiate accomplishments suggested a higher draft status.

He will report to mini-camp with the Giants in the coming week.

"I'm just ready to go," Hall said. "I'll show a lot of people. The whole thing was crazy. What can I do about it now but prove them wrong."

I can't help but wonder if things might have been different had their been a firmer hand re discipline early in his stay at Bama. He certainly has the size, speed and hands to play at the next level. Acquiring the "questionable work ethic" label did him in.

If there was a firmer hand in discipline I doubt DJ would have made it past the Cotton Bowl in '05. He should have been kicked out of school back then.

I sure hope he has a better attitude in the NFL then he did the last 2 years at BAMA.

He'll fit in just fine in the NFL, they seem to have a lot of WR's with attitude problems.

If there were a few more DB's around to keep them in line like Mr. Teague they might think twice.

He better improve his 40 time by 3/10 and put on 30 pounds of muscle.

They also had him labeled as soft and afriad to go over the middle.

He would've been even better if he had a QB who could get him the ball more last year and better play calling.

You can't be serious. DJ's Hall biggest problem was/is/always will be DJ Hall

Exactly. Read his NFL bio. He was productive at times but I am glad to see him gone personally.
