Caleb Downs Scouting Summary

“Extremely well-rounded safety who has been one of the top prospects in Georgia regardless of class for much of his high school career,” On3’s Director of Scouting Charles Power wrote. “Shows a complete skill set as a cover safety. Has the range to cover hash to boundary with ease. Also is fluid and natural in man coverage. Outstanding ball production with 14 interceptions over the first three seasons of his high school career. Instinctual both in coverage and as a cover down defender. Identifies run plays and underneath passes very quickly. Also an active tackler. Shows of his athleticism on offense where he sees snaps at multiple skill positions, including quarterback. Has starred while playing against top competition in the Peach State. Comes from strong bloodlines with a father who was an NFL Draft pick and brother who is one of the better receivers in college football.”

Downs ranks as the No. 12 player in the On300. The peach state safety also tabs in as the top safety in the nation, and the No.1 player in the state of Georgia.
