2025 Guide: What Ourlads’ NFL Scouting Services said about CAM'RON SILMON-CRAIG:
Colorado | Hometown: Cedar Hill, TX | HT: 5104 | WT: 194 | 40 time: N/A | Hand: 0812 | Arm: 2912 | Wing: 7012
Four-year starter. Second-team All-Big 12 in 2024, first-team All-SWAC in 2022. Transfer from Jackson State prior to the 2023 season. Leader of the Colorado defense who led the team in tackles last season. Notably undersized with a skinny frame. Plays all over the field including in the box, apexed, and at deep safety. He sees the whole field from deep safety. Quick processing speed and reaction time to put himself in position to take away concepts downfield. Fluid mover in space underneath to stay in front of receivers to collision them. Good agility and short-area burst matching running backs out of the backfield, and when buzzing to the flat in zone. Solid pedal technique in man where he uses a decent backpedal to maintain leverage, and possesses the fluidity to flip and run with receivers downfield. Long strides in space to make ground quickly, and notable acceleration when tackling on an angle to close space in a hurry. In the box, he is a patient run defender who scrapes with flow and flies downhill to meet running backs in the backfield. Finishes with proper tackling form. From one-high alignments he gets looked-off regularly and struggles to get back in position. In the box, gets sucked into the line on run plays and ends up out of position. Slim frame and strength deficiencies will make it difficult to bring ball carriers down consistently at the next level. Tight ends in space bounce off of him on tackling attempts.
2024 Stats: 94 T, 10 TFL, 2 sacks, 3 PBU, 6 QBH, 1 FF, 1 FR (1 TD), 1 INT. Draft projection: 7th round/PFA
