Woods is a violent, twitchy interior disruptor with a first step that puts guards on their heels before they can get set — the kind of explosive get-off that can't be coached. His best reps look like a future All-Pro 3-technique terrorizing the A and B gaps, but the five career sacks over three seasons at Clemson are an uncomfortable truth that no amount of scheme-blaming fully explains. The short arms (31.25 inches) and occasional struggles absorbing double teams are real concerns that will narrow his best-fit NFL homes to aggressive, penetrating 4-3 fronts that unleash him rather than ask him to hold ground. At 21 years old with a frame that's still filling out, he's the definition of a projection bet — the ceiling is Jeffery Simmons-lite, but the floor is a rotational interior rusher who flashes without finishing.

• ⚡Elite first-step explosiveness that consistently wins the initial phase of the rep against interior linemen
• ✋Impressive positional versatility — lined up at 3-tech, nose, and edge at Clemson with effectiveness in all alignments
• +Violent, refined hand strikes that jolt offensive linemen and create immediate leverage advantages
• 🔥Relentless motor and high-effort pursuit from snap to whistle, regardless of game situation
• +Extreme youth (turns 21 in March 2026) with significant physical projection remaining as he fills out his frame

• 🪵Below-average arm length (31.25 inches) allows blockers to crowd his frame and neutralize his explosiveness at the point of attack
• 🚀Minimal pass-rush production relative to physical tools — only 5 career sacks in 1,252 defensive snaps, with no go-to counter move
• 💥2025 production regressed despite increased snap count, raising questions about consistency and finishing ability
• 🦬Pad level gets too high, diminishing bull-rush effectiveness and creating anchor issues against down blocks and double teams
