Draft Profile: Bio
Myles Hinton from Greater Atlanta Christian High School was rated a 5-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 4-star grade by 247 Sports. Following high school, Hinton opted to join Stanford.In 2020 as a freshman Hinton saw action in 5 games and played a total of 62 snaps for the Cardinal. He allowed no QB hurries, no QB hits, and no sacks while playing the majority of his snaps at left guard, and the rest at right guard.
As a sophomore in 2021 he played in 12 games and a total of 628 snaps. He conceded a disappointing 17 QB hurries, 2 QB hits, and 4 sacks while playing at right tackle.
In 2022 as a junior Hinton saw action in 7 games and totaled 446 snaps. He gave up just 2 QB hurries, one QB hit, and 2 sacks while playing most of his snaps at right tackle.
After season's end Hinton transferred to Michigan where as a senior Hinton saw action in 11 games and played a total of 282 snaps for the Wolverines. He allowed 5 QB hurries, one QB hit, and one sack while playing the majority of his snaps at tight tackle, and the rest at left tackle.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Exhibits good patience in pass protection, sitting back in his set rather than leaning and lunging.
- Consistently lands blocks at the second level, and Hinton finishes strong. As a pass protector, he has violent, heavy hands. Along with a strong initial punch, he has the hand strength to grip and redirect pass rushers.
- Attacks his man, playing with a wide base and the lateral agility to mirror, sustain and shuffle to help inside. Has the size, strength and quick feet to be effective as a position run-blocker.
- Is effective when asked to pull, showing the agility, speed, and overall range to get out as a lead blocker, where he locates defenders and shows the ability to adjust and land blocks against linebackers.
- An agile mover who puts his length to good use, using his hands aggressively and landing solid initial punches. Hinton can move to the second level as a run blocker, with the coordination and balance to hit moving targets.
- If a scout were to draw up a starting NFL left tackle, the picture may look like a lot like Adams. His height, length and athletic build are prototypical for the position that helps protect the blind side of ultra-important starting quarterbacks.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- He’ll have trouble with elite quickness at the next level.
- Can be a tick slow at the snap when asked to pass protect, and at times Hinton looks hesitant when facing stunts and twists.
- Hinton often plays too high, allowing speed-to-power rushers to knock him back and off balance. Hinton needs to get much better with his hand use.
