Seattle Seahawks linebacker Derick Hall was suspended for one game without pay for stepping on Rams guard Kevin Dotson's leg during a game, an act deemed unsportsmanlike by the NFL. Hall's suspension will impact the team's defensive rotation in upcoming games, and he has the right to appeal the decision.
Former NFL quarterback Brock Huard believes that Seattle Seahawks rookies Devon Witherspoon and Derick Hall have the biggest learning curve when it comes to technique and scheme. Witherspoon, a cornerback, faces an uphill battle due to the specific technique that head coach Pete Carroll wants taught to his cornerbacks. Hall, an edge rusher, needs to improve his pass-rush skills and become a technician to succeed in the Seahawks' scheme.
The Seattle Seahawks selected Derick Hall, an edge defender from Auburn, with the No. 37 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. Hall adds depth to an edge room that includes Uchenna Nwosu, Boye Mafe, and Darrell Taylor. Hall's biggest strength is his willingness against the run, but his pass rushing arsenal is lacking. He has the floor of a low-end starter and the ceiling of a low-end backup. Hall does not offer much versatility and will likely be an edge defender in the NFL.
The Seattle Seahawks made three moves on Day 2 of the 2023 NFL Draft, including selecting Auburn pass rusher Derick Hall at No. 37, UCLA running back Zach Charbonnet at No. 52, and trading down from No. 83 to No. 108 in the fourth round while also acquiring a 2024 third-round pick. The Hall pick was a surprise to many, but the Seahawks saw something special in him. Charbonnet joins 2022 second-round pick Kenneth Walker Jr. in Seattle's backfield, and the Seahawks have a history of finding gems in the fourth round.

The Seahawks hope Hall will help make their defensive line more dynamic and troublesome for opponents.
The Seattle Seahawks completed the trade of Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos by selecting Auburn's pass rusher Derick Hall in the second round of the NFL Draft.
