Overview

Hagg has the size, speed and instincts in coverage to contribute immediately as a sub-package reserve could become a starter in time. Can play man against tight ends and slots, shows good awareness in underneath zone, very capable of covering the deep half and flashes the ability to play in deep cover one. However, doesn't make enough plays when in position and around the football. Can be drawn down by the play-fake and can be a tick slow diagnosing and reacting to the run. Durable, productive and reliable in coverage.


Strengths

Hagg is a nice combination of size and speed. Good awareness in coverage. Displays great positioning in zone and can jump routes in man. Smooth athlete who can turn and recover. Can play the deep half or centerfield and mirror tight ends and slots in man. Will compete for the jump ball. Sound tackler.

Weaknesses

Needs to improve his ability to locate the football get upfield in run support. Will bite on play-action. Doesn't possess the ball skills to routinely come down with the interception. Will allow some completions when in good position to break up the play. Isn't a big hitter.

Grade

5.4
