STRENGTHS
Camron is a natural Defensive End for a team that runs a base 4/3 defense. He has excellent size and good length and because of the way his college team has used him, on the inside and on the outside, has made Cameron a very smart player. He has good balance and natural strength to go along with excellent pass-rushing techniques. Cameron has strong hands and can control his opponent when playing in a 2-gap system and stopping the run. He is a complete defensive lineman who can rush the passer and stop the run from multiple positions on your defensive front if you need him to but, his impact position should be as a DE in a 4/3. That position will be the position, he can impact against on both running and passing downs.
CONCERNS
Right now, because he has played for Tulane the “experts” are just looking for negatives in his game instead of the positives and this attitude will affect his draft status. Also, because Cameron is a complete football player and doesn’t have the pass rushing numbers, those same “experts” do not recognize his overall potential.
BOTTOM LINE 1.73
Cameron is smaller than Carlos Dunlap but his overall style, of how he plays the game reminds me a lot of Carlos. Like Carlos when he came out, most people did not recognize his talents to dominate and they are doing the same with Cameron. Because Cameron was playing out of position and with good weight, but not the correct weight, people downgrade him. They think that’s a negative but for me, all of that are positives and is what makes Cameron more well-rounded with the potential to dominate at the next level at his true impact position. A slimmed-down version of the Cameron, who has started for the last three years for his college team, showed up at the Senior Bowl. He showed his quickness and strength in the game and in all of the practices and dominated. Oh, and by the way, he proved my point that he is a natural (with the potential to dominate) Defensive End in a 4/3 front. All you have to do is watch that game.
