Instincts: Knows when to place air on the football or drill it into the wide receiver. Excellent at setting up quarterback draw plays with a normal drop before running. When he tucks and runs, Hood makes defenders miss with a variety of moves.

Polish: Hood’s ability to extend plays in the pocket and keep his eyes on the secondary is fantastic. Very good touch with the deep passes. Excellent feel for running read-option and quarterback designed runs.

Bottom Line: Hood is a dynamic dual-threat signal-caller with excellent touch and plenty of arm strength. His ability to make defenders miss like a running back, or simply keep a play alive before making a pass, makes Hood’s upside high regardless of offensive role or situation.
