Leon Hall, or Darrelle Revis?

I just saw that Mel Kiper Jr. has the Texans taking Leon Hall in the first, but if we were to go CB who would you rather take? Leon Hall? Or Darrelle Revis?

I would rather have Revis, Hall just seems like he can't cover his man close enough and gives up too many receptions. Plus Revis is a good punt returner. We haven't really discussed picking a CB in round one, and that is a legitimate need.

Coming from the Upper Midwest I have seen a lot of Leon Hall, and he is definitely a play maker. He did give probably a little bit too much room to faster recievers, however it was countered by his ability to close after the catch, you don't get much if anything against hall after the catch. He is a solid tackler. I can see him being somewhat similar to what we have in Dunta Robinson. That being said I have absolutely nothing to say about Revis simply because I have never seen him play or anything so anything I would say about him would be based off of stats and ignorance.

I'm a little biased cause I really really don't like Michigan, but I'd still rather have Revis. Hall seems maxed out, and Revis had been my number one corner in the draft before workouts. Hall's 4.39 time is impressive, but Revis was pretty close to that anyways. Revis plays up close and gets physical on the line of scrimmage. I like both a lot and they are pretty similar, but Revis has that upside factor. He reminds me of Nate Clements.

Put me down in the Revis camp. Hall did well in most of his games, but when faced with better competition he was burned. Revis while he doesn't have the same body of work as Hall, seems more solid and is also a standout st player. JMO.

I would rather have Hall.... We really dont need any help at punt or kick return... The only thing that would worry me about hall is if he goes up againt Jarrett...

At kick returner we don't but at punt returner we could use an upgrade. Dexter Wynn did ok last season, but I've watched him play all of his career, and Revis may be able to do more for us.
