Nice to see what his verified measurements are. Complete stud
Anyone thinks Dawson will become a 5 star?
That's what I think.
The crazy thing is that he was easily beating blue-chip tackles at camp already. He’s not just a combine guy, he has a natural feel as a rusher.
And dude is still 16 years old. He has a lot of developing left to do.
He won’t be 18 until his first fall camp, in 2027.

I'd gladly take DJ Jacobs in this class, but I'm not sure that Dawson is far behind from a pure physical traits perspective. The kid is a freak show talent.
As to the "combine guy" thing, any jumps for him or any of the shuttle/3cone drills?
I always take these HS results with a major grain of salt... 40 most of all. But whenever these dudes post elite jumps, its suspect. But if he's got the great jumps, a good 10 yard, and if he has a good 3cone..... Edge all the way. I'd say he's got a Randy Gregory Build. But we will see if he stays more slim or ends up more 250lbs+ in 1.5yrs of S&C.... don't particularly get the Sonny Styles comp, besides athleticism I guess... Styles played Safety throughout HS. Dawson already plays Edge/LB.
Lmao those size numbers are dumb AF! This kid is 16!
So he’s playing lb ?
He currently plays both LB and Edge in high school but I believe he will be an Edge at Miami.
We’re deep at de we need lbs not directed to him . Hopefully he plays both
That what made me think he’s playing lb lol
Dawson made a massive leap from three-star prospect to the No. 102 overall recruit nationally. The in-state prospect flew under-the-radar for most of the offseason. However, Miami saw him during the spring evaluation period, offered and closed with his commitment soon after.
At 6-foot-3, 215 pounds, Dawson is one of the most intriguing prospects nationally. Along with his interesting frame, Dawson runs a 4.66 40, has a 38.5-inch vertical and a 10’7 broad jump. He’s also just 16 years old, making him one of the younger prospects in the cycle.

He as the athletic profile to be a monster. I see Hetherman using him the say way he uses Lightfoot.
