Clifton Dawson

[Elliott 1]

I think this guy may be worth a seventh or at least a good hard look as an undrafted FA.

He shattered the Ivy league rushing record this last year. They say he is extremely explosive but is most known for his toughness.

Elliott, what are his measurements? Ht Wt 40 etc? Is he a good receiver out of the backfield? Any other info you could share?

He's 5-9 5/8, 212lbs. He ran a 4.54 and 4.57 forty.

His short shuttle in 4.16, which isn't great when you're looking at a .5 differential between the two. The three-cone drill was 7.09, which is 0.02 quicker than LaRon Landry but .21 slower than Jamaal Anderson. Read into that what you will. He had a very impressive 38-inch vertical jump, a 9-foot-4 broad jump and 18 bench presses.

On March 21, he worked out again at Boston College, where he once again ran indoors on FieldTurf. Now at 214 pounds, Dawson ran his 40s in 4.63 and 4.68, the short shuttle in 4.40 and the three-cone drill in 6.98. He also had a 37-inch vertical jump and a 9-foot-7 broad jump.

Thanks,Boom. So,as I see it he could be anywhere from good to why did we do this? Maybe alright for UDFA.
