Expert Analysis
Robert Davis | Prep Redzone Scout
Escamilla delivered a strong statistical season with 83 total tackles and two tackles for loss, while also impacting the passing game with multiple pass breakups. At 5’7 and 170 pounds, his long term projection may lean toward a hybrid linebacker/safety role, where his quickness and instincts can be maximized in space. Escamilla plays with urgency and a noticeable edge, attacking ball carriers and finishing with strong contact. Continued development in the weight room will be important as he works to disengage from blocks more consistently. With added strength and offseason exposure, he has the tools to elevate his profile and continue ascending the rankings.
