Ball-hawking Kansas CB with proven playmaking chops
Mello Dotson is a productive, high-impact cornerback who capped his Kansas career in 2024 with 49 tackles, five interceptions, seven pass breakups, and two pick-sixes, earning First-Team All-Big 12 and second-team Walter Camp All-American recognition. He stands out for elite instincts, route recognition, and true turnover production—12 career interceptions, four returned for touchdowns—which makes him valuable as a matchup corner and a game-changing ball magnet. The main fit question is tackling consistency, but his instinctive, physical style and special-teams experience give him a strong plug-and-play profile for an NFL secondary.[4][9][13][15]
