Robert Davis

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

Guida is a backer with a lot of strength and is constantly seen driving the ball carrier back when he makes contact. He excels at helping stop the running game but can drop back in coverage at times as well. He has good vision being able to navigate around blocks to make a stop. He shows the ability to have a short quick burst, tracking down the ball carrier and taking away cutback lanes. Can see him hustling and taking good pursuit angles, cutting down the ball carrier for short to no gains. When his number is called on blitzes, he is able to hit home and when he doesn’t, he forces the QB into bad throws and turnovers.
