Draft Profile: Bio
Cam Porter from La Salle High School was rated a 3-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 3-star grade by 247 Sports. Following high school, Porter joined Northwestern.

In 2020 as a freshman Porter saw action in 7 games for the Wildcats as he ran for 333 yards on 81 attempts for 4.1 yards per carry, with 5 TDs, with no fumbles. As a receiver he made only 9 receptions for 57 yards.

As a sophomore in 2022 he played 12 games. and rushed for 284 yards on 87 carries for only 3.3 ypc, with 2 TDs, with 2 fumbles. In the passing game he pulled in only 7 receptions for 50 yards.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • His competitiveness and knack for high-pointing the ball allow him to play bigger than his size.
  • Doesn't possess elite breakaway speed, but is fast enough to gain yardage in chunks when Porter finds a seam.
  • Quick feet with good vision to pick through defenses. Porter has solid hands and body control and is a reliable receiver.
  • He’s patient, letting blocks develop then accelerating. He runs with a good forward lean and consistently falls forward.
  • Porter brings a nice blend of size, speed and power. His best attribute is his relentlessness; he consistently thrashes through tacklers to turn minimal gains into long ones.
  • Very physical runner; keeps his legs churning on contact. Rarely goes down with the first hit. Lowers shoulder into defenders and shows pure determination with natural running skills to break free and stiff-arm and spin move to dodge tacklers.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Porter has constantly ran a limited route tree.
  • His playing speed is less than elite. He won’t run past defenders like Porter did at the college level.
  • Porter has a tendency to seek out contact rather than avoid it. He’s not particularly creative as a runner, going north-south and trying to power through tacklers at the second level.
