PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Travis Hunter’s unique two-way skill set as a cornerback and wide receiver makes him one of the most versatile prospects in recent history. As a CB, Hunter has elite-level anticipation and ball skills that enable him to challenge WR1s effectively, especially in zone schemes where he can read and react. While his thin frame (185 lbs) impacts his physicality in press coverage, his recovery speed (reported 4.4 forty-yard dash) and route recognition help mitigate these issues. At WR, Hunter’s burst, elite ball tracking, and run-after-catch ability make him an explosive threat downfield. His dynamic playstyle suits a team open to leveraging him in specific, high-impact roles on both sides of the ball, potentially similar to Deion Sanders.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
Near Elite (70-74)
A high-caliber prospect who is expected to become a significant contributor by Year 2. These players have outstanding physical tools and strong football IQ, with only minor flaws in their game. They demonstrate consistency at a high level and project as future Pro Bowl-caliber players if properly developed.
