Draft Profile: Bio
Calen Bullock from John Muir High School was rated a 3-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 4-star grade by 247 Sports. Following high school, Bullock opted to join USC after being heavily recruited.In 2021 as a freshman Bullock saw action in 12 games and played a total of 473 snaps at safety for the Trojans. He recorded 30 tackles, 8 assists, while adding 10 stops. In coverage Bullock notched up 4 pass breakups, 2 interceptions, and QB rating when targetted of 77.5.
As a sophomore in 2022 he played in 13 games and logged 784 snaps for the Trojans. He made 41 tackles, 12 assists, and had 6 stops. In coverage he totaled 4 pass breakups, 5 interceptions, and QB rating when targetted of 89.4.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- His length and leaping ability allow him to high-point the ball and make plays. Bullock would have had bigger interception numbers in college had opposing quarterbacks not gone out of their way to avoid him.
- He’s also very good in zone coverage, showing a great understanding of routes and the ability to close quickly.
- Has a tall frame and long arms, plus strong hands, giving him a huge catch radius.
- Flashes good ball skills. Bullock has the fluidity and change-of-direction ability to mirror quicker receivers underneath.
- Has good ball skills to locate and attack the ball in the air.
- He’s tall-framed with long arms to match. With his powerful hands, straight-line speed, and fluidity in his hips, turning and chasing downfield shouldn’t be a problem.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Isn’t overly physical and might struggle to win early against bigger receivers in the NFL. He’s also underpowered in run support, not aggressive enough coming downhill, and too much of a grab-and-drag tackler.
- Has a lean, narrow frame and needs to get stronger.
- Isn’t great in route recognition when he’s facing the action, is hesitant and susceptible to double moves, and too often gets unnecessarily handsy when playing trail position
