Ted’s Talk: Predicting Cameron Young’s rookie season Can the former Missisippi State DT make an immediate impact on the Seahawks defense?
Cameron Young isn’t particularly athletic, but he’s no slouch either with “good” RAS scores for size, speed, and explosion. It’s those agility grades that leave something to be desired. The good news? As a run-stuffing nose tackle – where the Seahawks plan to play Young – agility isn’t quite as important as the ability for the player to hold his ground and muck things up in the middle. Young’s arm length of 34.
The Mockdraftable comparisons show Jalen Carter, which sounds exciting until you realize that it’s based solely on the height, weight, arm length, and hand size as Carter didn’t perform any of the athletic testing at the combine or his pro day. Since Young will attempt to take over the role filled by Al Woods, let’s see how they compare according to RAS.
Not too far off really. Both players are similarly sized, but Woods can probably tie his shoes without bending over with those ridiculous 36” arms. Young performed better in the speed tests, but Woods had him beat in agility tests. The broad jumps were pretty even, but I need to call out that 37” vertical from Al Woods at 309lbs. Like…how??
Young has already added weight to get to around 320lbs and will probably take some time to add more strength to hold down the nose tackle position in the NFL – but there were already plenty of instances of him stonewalling the offensive line in college and clogging up the middle of the line.
