Cleveland Browns finish with DE/OLB Alex Hall, a native of Glenarden, Maryland in Prince George's County.The Cleveland Browns finished off the 2008 NFL Draft by selecting defensive end Alex Hall from Division II St. Augustine's College, a historically black college, 231st overall in the seventh round.
At 6-5 and 215 pounds, Hall is tall and thin with room to bulk up in an NFL training program. He'll likely transition to 3-4 outside linebacker for the Browns. Hall was named a D2Football.com First-team All-American for the 2007 season and was a second-team selection in '06.
Hall finished his career at St. Augustine as the program's all-time leader in sacks with 25.5 and tackles for loss with 54. He has great size and athleticism.
He made the 2007 All-CIAA first team for the second straight year after recording 7 sacks and 15 tackles for loss, both team highs, in 9 games while leading the Falcons to a No. 6 national ranking in total defense.
Hall is the second football All-American at Saint Augustine's College since the school restarted football in 2002.
