Scouting Report: Strengths
- He’ll have some limitations in man coverage, but Hill should develop into a serviceable starter.
- In the run game, he’s aggressive coming downhill and a sure tackler.
- Patient and flexible in his drops and looks natural in space. Aggressive with an active playing style to work through the action - doesn't back down against the run
- Great on route recognition and has click-and-close ability
- His length and leaping ability allow him to high-point the ball and make plays. Hill would have had bigger interception numbers in college had opposing quarterbacks not gone out of their way to avoid him.
- Can track the ball downfield and gets his head around when playing in a trail position, and he shows excellent ball skills when breaking on a route. He’s a plus tackler in run support as well.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Inconsistent getting off of blocks. Can be a step slow to react when a quarterback comes back to his side of the field late in progression.
- Opens his hips too early and allows himself to get turned around in coverage.
- Tends to play conservatively and give too much cushion when playing off.
