We need this kid now more than ever...

[@monkus7493]

I like this kid! I hope he develops

[@kamfuller8558]

I love the Vikings so much❤❤❤❤

Critics: BUT HIS ARM! Hall: throws 55 yards with touch

[@jonathoncouchey7151]

They don't know the difference between s9ft arm and soft touch. It looks like he can sling it when he wants to though.

[@SparkyFinch]

@@jonathoncouchey7151 big and little Simms discussed Hall in a podcast this spring and said they think his throwing distance might improve with some technical adjustments. He has baseball elements to his mechanics

He’ll do great 👍 💜💛

[@chinsters7644]

I'm a BYU fan. You picked interesting plays to analyze. It's true he's is so incredibly accurate. He made far more accurate plays where it looked like the play was broken, but he throws it across the field where only his guy can get it. Keep in mind too these plays were against teams like Baylor and Oregon. No slouch of a team. But you did miss his running plays. He's not super fast, but there were plenty of times where we had to run 10 yards for a first down and easily got it. He was often the second rusher in a game. But he can make the throws to the vikes very talented receivers, and that should excite any fan!

[@ancapgrandscribe9546]

Issue is he'll get a hell of a lot more pressure with our injury prone washed buckets Oline, especially the interior.

I just hope you’re right.

Man I hope this kid is the next big thing for us. Looking forward to seeing what he can do!

In Kevin O'Connel I trust😂...I believe not only our coach but the entire front office has or is going to put something together.

Thanks again Pete! I am sold on this Kid, hope he develops into a star!

I am excited for this pick. Nobody explains football better than B.

[@samuelp7847]

Can we just draft BYUs OLine? That protection is amazing

[@nahlejdrappah6231]

What I recognize most from this kids is his balance and center of gravity, followed by the accuracy and strength of his arm. I think he has the demeanor to be a good QB in the league, especially with weapons like JJ, KJ, TJ and JA.

[@fuerstdraugrr]

Future Franchise QB

[@tim4cn759]

He definitely has some serious potential... I like his awareness and pre snap read along with his throwing mechanics and ball placement

[@davidking8046]

So he didn’t check down, on 3 and long and made sure his receiver was past the sticks? Nice

[@kelvingraham2040]

😂😂 we are mess up over that play....thanks kirk

[@Johnhargrove18]

“But but Kirk was pressured” ok throw it up and pray. Kirk had time. So over the mediocre bs

[@danielbrinker1780]

What a tired take. Someone was open so he threw it there. Not to mention an incompletion didn’t end the game.

[@danielbrinker1780]

Kirk was like 10/10 on 3rd downs Sunday.

[@toddaulner5393]

Super happy he will be starting vs. Packers wk. 17. Let's Go!!!

[@robe2504]

Here after Kirk went down. Hope Hall can do enough.

[@SlyXSkillet]

Okay we’re about to be a whole new dangerous

[@danjohnson8556]

As a BYU fan who watched every play, you missed some major runs and sold him a bit short on his athleticism. Other than that, excellent analysis. Vikings fans will be pleasantly surprised with Hall. He has the poise and maturity to make an impact and could even be a successful starter at some point.

[@iLostTheStreak0]

On draft day, we all watch the highlights of the players who have joined the vikings. I could care less if he ran the ball like joe flacco, but.. the preemptive strikes that hall can throw are nice. My only dig on kirk is that he rarely will do anything gunslinger-ish, i have pretty good hopes for this young man. I also hoped Kellen Mond was going to transition into a dog though so as usual "we will see"

[@hoople0320]

Im glad he is getting a chance to play ....i dont know about a qb development but i think they need to be in the game and practicingwith the ones ...not standing on side lines with headphones and a clip board....time to shine ...this is a blessing him getting an opportunity so if he is our man we dont have to chase a qb in the draft kwesi would hive up a 1st 2nd 3 rd this year and a firts next to mover up top three to pic a qb and we dont want to do that

[@Tr4v3ler]

Would have also liked to see plays showing what he'll need to improve on.

[@ThisIsHarderThanIThought]

i have confident in hall, if given the chance, can lead and do more with the vikings in three years than kirk did in all of his years with the vikings...and this is with hall having no nfl experience vs cousins whos had close to 10 yrs before joining the vikings...guys, guys...look at halls face...he has that type of face (mahomes/burrows/allen) that equates to a QB that will be great...theres something about a QB face that will tell you he will be one of the top QBs in the league...theres not much that seperate the #1 from the #2...then from #3 to #10 is interchangeable...i think hall can be in the #3 to #10 in a yr two starter...top 15 in his first year.

[@jakenelson8737]

"look at his face, clearly a top qb prospect" bad take

[@TheTutorialLevel]

Top 3 face in the NFL in year two? A bit of wishful thinking if you ask me. But I like the optimism friend, SKOL Vikes! 🤘

[@codykoch8342]

Don’t underestimate halls running he’s a brick and can bomb 70 yards accurately he’s just a good qb Vikings made a great pick with this kid he’s a diamond in the rough skol

Nice try wanker. As evident of the Vikings' current title of division Champ, they are clearly the best team in the division. Detroit will compete with them, but we definitely know that the Bears and Packers will be battling for 3rd place in the division.

Dude can make all the throws Kwerk can as well as be a physical runner when needed. Younger and cheaper. Just remains to be seen if he can do it at the NFL level against NFL level defenses. Not saying he's the answer, but anything is better then trotting out old Captain short of the sticks on 4th and 8 with the season on the line. Even Hall would have known to throw a pass past the sticks.

[@montgomerywilliams2707]

Do you know what I think? How do you actually say that he’s not a runner? Does he not have legs? Do they not move forward? LMMFAO

@YOLO♦️ they have pretty good arms but like I said, the rules help them succeed. They also have a bunch of run plays designed around them. They play a whole new game with rules that makes it easier to score points. Records are meaningless
