. Dawson had a really good day and was even better in person than he was in his film–which isn’t something I see too frequently. Played a physical brand of corner at 5-foot-8 and 155 pounds, using his strength at the line of scrimmage to try and jam wideouts off the snap. Not the fastest or quickest defensive back at camp, but was really buttoned up with technique. Keeping his physical style, but working on speed will help him continue to rise.

He is a really good athlete with really solid closing speed and knows how to read routes as they progress and understands how to win with leverage down the field. More patience and poise could have really made Dawson an MVP candidate but there were a few very quality reps in there worth mentioning.
