Cameron Dantzler, Mississippi State
Cameron Dantzler started just nine games in his junior season at Mississippi State but tied for the team lead with two interceptions and eight pass breakups, adding 40 tackles in the process. He missed three games during the season due to an injury and elected to sit out his team’s bowl game to focus on the draft process.
So far, the process hasn’t been too kind to Dantzler, as he had a miserable NFL combine. What will matter to NFL teams, though, is his ability to hang with NFL caliber wide receivers in the SEC.
Dantzler is a thin cornerback at 6-foot-2, 188-pounds. Still, that doesn’t stop him from being a physical corner with great ball tracking skills. He can come in and be an immediate starter for a team looking for a physical tweener that can play with a chip on his shoulder.
