Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
James was all over the field against Legend. He accounted for 15 total tackles (13 solo, 2 assisted) 1 pass deflection, and 1 rushing touchdown. Cillessen demonstrated many qualities that any college would be fortunate to have. He’s very quick and all over the field. He’s able to do that thanks to very good athletic ability, and good mental processing. He’ll read the QB’s eyes and follow them to the ball carrier. Cillessen is a very good tackler, and it takes a lot for the tackles to be shed. A strong powerful bull rush is an excellent tool in his arsenal. He’ll use his good strength and low pad level to knock the offensive lineman on their feet and create pressure on the QB. Solid spin move as well. He’ll alternate between the different rushing styles to keep the offensive line on their toes.
