Kyle Hamilton is extremely athletic and does an excellent job in both zone and man to man coverage. Hamilton does a great job recovering once he makes a mistake in coverage and has strong hip fluidity. Hamilton has strong ball skills and great hand-eye coordination when tracking the football. He also has great hands, can get to the high point, and is a decent blitzer. Hamilton does a great job engaging with blocks and has the ability to fill in gaps, limiting the running back's options. He can be a solid tackler. Hamilton has a good stance as well when engaging with blocks and takes great pursuit angles. Hamilton plays with a lot of aggression and confidence every time he steps on the football field.Hamilton can be very consistent on the field and plays with a motor as he is very competitive. Hamilton is very versatile in multiple positions in strong or free safety, linebacker, and cornerback. He can easily recognize plays and is a strong communicator on defense. He must be more consistent with his play strength as he doesn't fully utilize it when making tackles. He has a bit of a tough time covering shiftier and quicker receivers especially in man to man coverage. Hamilton must focus on quickly closing as a pass rusher when he blitzes. Hamilton has a habit of missing easy tackles and not being a consistent hard hitter. Hamilton can be a bit too aggressive on plays resulting in missed tackles and when defending against screens. Durability is a concern due to dealing with a knee, foot and ankle injury through his college career. I have Kyle Hamilton going in the 1st Round as a Top 10 pick.
