2021 NFL Draft Prospect: Kylin Hill, RB, Mississippi State University
Kylin Hill looks like a statue and is super muscular. He is not afraid to use his body, and he is not afraid to use his mouth to make a difference.
When you look at players on the field, you have to also look at their character off the field as well. Earlier this year, it was Kylin Hill who helped with the removal of the Confederate emblem from the Mississippi State flag.
Hill posted a tweet back on June 22nd saying that if the state did not change the flag, he would not represent the state anymore. Well it worked, because less than five days later the Mississippi House passed a vote to remove the Confederate Emblem from their state flag.
Hill is not only a leader off the field, he has been a stud on the field. Throughout his career at Miss. State, Hill has rushed for 2,535 yards and scored 16 touchdowns. He has also averaged 5.6 yards per carry.
Kylin Hill made it official earlier this year that he is no longer with the Mississippi State football program as the Bulldogs’ former star running back revealed on social media that he is declaring for the 2021 NFL Draft.
What can Hill bring to an NFL team? Well he is a younger and more versatile Raheem Mostert.
NFL Draft Diamonds Notes
Kylin Hill can catch the ball out the backfield and bull you over. He is a 5’11 back but plays like a 6’2 back. He is big and physical. He runs hard, and his game is very close to Raheem Mostert of the Niners. I think Hill made the right decision to leave early and will be a top 90 draft pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. As a junior he was a beast and SEC’s leading rusher. He can take a game over by himself. – Damond Talbot, NFL Draft Diamonds Owner
