Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Closing speed and willingness to make the big hit make him one of the more versatile safeties in the class.
  • Flashes good ball skills. Dickerson has the fluidity and change-of-direction ability to mirror quicker receivers underneath.
  • Fast and agile, Dickerson sticks to receivers and closes on the ball.
  • Closes to the ball quite well and possesses the hands to snatch throws away from his frame.
  • Has a nice blend of length, speed, and quickness. He’s at his best mirroring routes underneath, showing fluid movement skills and the ability to change directions on a dime.
  • Should excel as a zone defender because of his closing speed to wrap receivers after the catch.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Not enough hip fluidity to adjust to topnotch NFL route runners.
  • Feet aren’t ideal, as Dickerson gets sloppy in his backpedal and can be sluggish when transitioning to close on the ball.
  • Rght now he’s only capable of playing in trail position, and even then he’d likely be draw a lot of flags.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
