“Well [Hurst] brings that [interior pass-rushing ability]. That’s what he’s known for. It doesn’t mean he can do it in the NFL. P.J. Hall has a lot of production getting to the quarterback in college. He’s got some measurables – quickness and speed and strength that are important at that position as well. To get those two guys, we felt they were the top two inside rushers in this draft,” said Gruden via RDreamer of Siler And Blake Pride.

For Hall, he is just excited to get to work with the Raiders.

“Coming on my visit, I knew that they needed help on the interior pass rush, trying to help out the edge rushers that they had. Having interior pass rush that can help collapse the pocket will actually help them out too, on the edge. We’re just ready to get to work here and do what’s best for the team,” said Hall.
