Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Deandre Baker
Summary

Colton Hood has the top-end speed and hip fluidity to function in both man and zone. At times, he gets overly handsy and lacks the calm control that defines elite corners. He projects as an immediate starter, but how high he ultimately ascends may depend on his development.

About
  • 2025: Second-team All-SEC
  • 2025: Only SEC player with 4+ TFL and 8+ passes defensed
Strengths
  • Physical at the catch point; plays through the receiver’s hands.
  • Aggressive downhill in run support.
  • Patient at the snap with quick feet to mirror and match.
Weaknesses
  • Panics and grabs when he loses leverage.
  • Gives too much cushion underneath in zone at times.
  • Essentially one year of starting experience.
Combine Data
  • 40-yard dash: 4.44 seconds
  • Vertical jump: 40.5 inches
  • Broad jump: 10 feet, 5 inches
