Cover-3 match and two-high safety systems that prioritize versatility and coverage skills over pure downhill run support will best utilize Woods' skill set.
Rotational or starting free safety with significant slot/dime coverage responsibilities who can eventually develop into a long-term starter as a versatile backend defender.
Pure strong safety roles in run-heavy, single-high schemes that frequently ask safeties to play in the box and be primary run defenders.
Woods' ability to cover multiple positions and play effectively in space makes him a valuable asset in modern pass-centric schemes, despite his average size for the position.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
