PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Anthony Hill Jr. is a rare athlete with true sideline-to-sideline range, explosive short-area burst, and the frame to thrive in multiple linebacker roles. A 5-star recruit and early contributor at Texas, Hill developed into a dominant playmaker by his sophomore year. With 10 sacks, five forced fumbles, and more than 30 coverage stops across two seasons, he’s been a disruptive force in every phase of the game. While his processing and block disengagement remain developmental areas, Hill’s hybrid ability as an inside blitzer, run stopper, and coverage weapon gives him three-down upside in either a 3-4 or 4-3 scheme. His 2025 tape will determine whether he rises into the first-round tier like Nakobe Dean or remains a high-upside Day 2 project with athletic traits similar to Jamie Collins or Jamin Davis.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
High-End Starter Potential (65-69)
A player expected to become a top-tier starter within their first few years. They possess strong physical tools and good technical skills but may have some limitations in their game. With development, they can reach near-elite levels and provide consistent impact at their position.
