Draft Scouting Report
Pro Comparison: Mike Daniels
Summary
Woods has been on NFL radars since his true freshman season. The prodigious play strength and first-step quickness he’s shown are exactly what you need to be a star 3-technique in the NFL. We just haven’t seen the requisite skill development on tape. That’s not to say it won’t come. Dexter Lawrence was a similar case study before becoming the best nose tackle in the NFL. It’s just that Woods could have been a top-10 lock with more production last fall.
About
- 2025: First-team All-ACC
- 2023-25: Fourth-most pressures (54) and tackles (85) by ACC DT
Strengths
- Sheds with violence; treats 300-plus-pounders like ragdolls.
- First step forces offensive linemen to consistently play from behind.
- Feet to cross the face of unsuspecting defensive tackles.
Weaknesses
- Small frame; 3-technique only for a lot of schemes.
- More of an effort rusher than technique-based.
- Production took a big step backward from 2024 to 2025.
