Draft Profile: Bio
Peter Woods from Thompson High School was rated a 5-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 4-star grade by 247 Sports. After high school, Woods joined Clemson after being heavily recruited.

In 2023 as a freshman Woods saw action in 12 games and played a total of 301 snaps for the Tigers. He recorded 23 tackles, 3 assists, while adding 20 stops. As a pass rusher, he added 20 total pressures, which included 18 QB hurries, 2 QB hits, and no sacks on the season.

As a sophomore for the Tigers in 2024 Woods played in 2 games and took part in 56 snaps for the Tigers. He recorded only 5 tackles, 2 assists, while adding 5 stops.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Quick off the snap in the pass rush, Woods has violent hands and a good feel for working inside counter moves.
  • A savvy, versatile and instinctive edge rusher who did a little bit of everything, he was especially effective getting to the quarterback.
  • Woods has decent enough flexibility to bend the edge, and he shows a good closing burst.
  • He’s extremely thick through the lower body, and he uses his natural leverage to win at the point of attack, often requiring a double team.
  • He’s a high-effort pass rusher who shows good initial quickness and the ability to beat blockers to the inside.
  • Woods has an excellent motor and shows the stamina to last deep into the fourth quarter.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Woods has to develop a counter move or two in the pass rush, and Woods needs to make better use of his hands.
  • Because he doesn’t show much variety in his pass-rush moves, he may have to come offthe field on third downs.
  • Woods remains a bit raw, as he is inconsistent with his hand use and lacks violence in his hands

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
