The Cincinnati Bengals made Daxton Hill the pick in the first round of the 2022 NFL draft.
That pick was a mild surprise, as most mocks tabbed the Bengals as going after an offensive lineman or attacking either cornerback or the need for pass-rushers.
But what makes Hill such an intriguing pick is the fact he can play all over the field. Maybe he doesn’t see snaps at outside corner, but his ability to play both safety spots, nickel and more is something the team will use right away.
Add in some very rare athletic traits that mesh well with the film and it’s safe to say that scouting reports loved Hill.
