Thoughts on Michigan safety Daxton Hill

[Hardline]

Daxton seems to be a late first early second round prospect at this point

Exceptional athlete and plays as fast. I like him the back end of the first

He's kind of lumped in with the kid from PSU, both back end of the first round types and in the next grouping behind Hamilton from ND.

It could actually be the first time in a while value matched up with need at S for us in the 1st

Im not gonna get myself excited though lol

Wheres the ball skills?

With Northwestern S Brandon Joseph.

Really like him. Smart player that plays with urgency.

I wouldn’t mind him in certain board scenarios.

They could be better. However, with the amount of TO's we have been able to generate this year I am more willing to overlook so so ball production than in years past

This team will not draft a Safety in round 1. You can put it in stone.

I’m fine rolling with Kearse Hooker Wilson next year

We need OL and DL in rds 1-2

At this point, I agree. This is the best case and save our picks.

I do love Hill though

Hill is going to test off the charts.

Hill is going to test off the charts.

In a league full of elite athletes, Hill might be as elite as it gets. The Michigan S had the highest SPARQ rating in the 2019 recruiting class. Among other things, he logged a 4.3 40-yard dash and a 43-inch vertical, as well as a 4.13 20-yard shuttle.

Hill, Brisker and Battle are likely going to be duking it out for the #2 S spot behind Hamilton. I think Hill's measurables will ultimately give him the edge

 

[Hardline]

I think Hill will fly up the draft board out of our range .

That's the Safety combination I want returning next year.

We could use an OT or an OG or a C.

LOL.

I tend to agree, but Hill's ball skills or lack of them are a bit concerning. Sure, Hill hits all the athletic markers but I am tired of the all SPARQ guys that show holes in their actual game. I have Taco flashback. Hamilton would look so good on a defense with Parsons. But he's going Top 10.

Doubt he's even a 1st rounder. He's not a playmaker

 

[Mr_437]

Daxton Hill is a slot CB basically. Maybe he can show he can play a true Saftey role in the Senior Bowl or something, but from what I see he's not a fit for Dallas. They need a true FS.

He most likely goes in the back end of the first round.
