Here's what I said at the time Hali was drafted in this thread:

Your quote is from 2008, when Hali was in the middle of an absolute suckass year where he was the "best" pass rusher on the worst pass rush in NFL history, and at that time, it was absolutely true.
So, aside from taking a quote completely out of context and ignoring my thoughts about the actual pick and conflating them with the piss poor production of 2008--great job!!
