The 6-foot, 193-pound cornerback was a second-team All-SEC pick and Jim Thorpe Award semifinalist in his only season at Tennessee. He had eight passes defended and one interception while allowing 28 receptions on 52 targets for 318 yards and one TD. He also returned a fumble for a touchdown and had 4.5 tackles for loss.<\/p>\n<p>At the combine, Hood ran a 4.44-second 40-yard dash and posted the fifth-highest vertical jump among corners at 40.5 inches.<\/p>\n<p>NFL Network\u2019s Daniel Jeremiah has Hood ranked as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/daniel-jeremiah-s-top-50-2026-nfl-draft-prospect-rankings-3-0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">29th overall prospect<\/a> in the draft. He\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/draft\/bestavailable\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">ranked 34th<\/a> by ESPN.<\/p>\n<p>Bumpus described Hood as a \u201cpatient\u201d corner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was trying to figure out a corner that he reminded me of, and the only one I can think of was one that people probably don\u2019t know. When I was in college, Karl Paymah, he was drafted third round by the Denver Broncos, and he was so fast and so strong that he could be really patient with his technique,\u201d Bumpus said. \u201cA smaller corner or a corner that\u2019s trying to make up for some things will be super aggressive at the line of scrimmage and kind of bring the fight to you, whereas he is waiting for you to bring the fight to him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shades of Spoon<\/p>\n<p>Terrell is the brother Falcons cornerback A.J. Terrell, a 202o first-round pick who was second-team All-Pro in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Avieon Terrell spent all three of his college seasons at Clemson. He was a second-team All-American, first-team All-ACC selection and Jim Thorpe Award semifinalist last season. The 5-foot-11, 186-pound Terrell had nine passes defended while allowing 29 receptions on 51 targets for for 340 yards and three TDs. He forced five fumbles, had 4.5 tackles for loss and received the <a href=\"https:\/\/premium.pff.com\/ncaa\/positions\/2025\/REG\/defense-pass-rush?position=CB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">highest pass-rush grade among cornerbacks<\/a> from Pro Football Focus while amassing 3.0 sacks.<\/p>\n<p>Terrell did not run a 40 at the combine and had the second-lowest vert among corners at 34 inches, but he tied for the lead at his position with 17 bench press reps of 225 pounds.<\/p>\n<p>Terrell is Jeremiah\u2019s 30th-ranked prospect and ESPN\u2019s 18th.<\/p>\n<p>Bumpus sees some shades of Seahawks star Devon Witherspoon in Terrell.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe way Clemson used him was the way that I see Mike Macdonald use Devon Witherspoon,\u201d Bumpus said. \u201cThey send him, he\u2019s blitzing off the edge, he\u2019s rallying to the football. He\u2019s the more active corner out of these two. Hood was more patient, kind of like an old soul when it comes to the corner play. This is that toddler who is just active, who cannot sit down. That is who Avion Terrell is. He\u2019s at good open-field tackling. He has that presence and that swag that Devon Witherspoon plays with, where you see him jaw-jacking and and talking.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Hear the full conversation at <a href=\"https:\/\/sports.mynorthwest.com\/podcast_player?a=bacb318d-d369-4783-af17-8d3e6181a2c0&amp;n=Bump+and+Stacy&amp;i=1725\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">this link<\/a> or in the audio player near the top of this story.
