Pros

  • Exceptional size and muscle mass for the receiver position.
​
  • Excellent speed to beat defenders deep.
 
  • Has excellent play strength that can be very difficult to deal with for opposing corners.
 
  • Has very good hands that are plucky when attacking the football.
 
  • Good arm length and excellent hands give him a great catch radius for quarterbacks.
 
  • Very powerful runner with the football in his hands after the catch and can fight through contact to pick up more yards.
 
  • He can take a hit and hold onto the football after the catch.
 
  • Excellent at the catch point to contort his frame to give himself the advantage against his corner back.
​
  • He's very good at coming down with contested catches.
 
  • Powers through press coverage from start to finish of his routes.
 
  • Was a very good redzone target for Tennessee as he can boxout his defender and came away with the football.
​
  • He has top gear speed when he has a bit of a runway.

Cons 

  • Very limited route tree

  • Played in Tennessee's up-tempo spread offense that allowed him to face light single coverage consistently.

  • Was second fiddle to Jalin Hyatt on offense, allowing him to face less coverage assignments.

  • Doesn't possess many evasive maneuvers to make plays, preferring to simply use his size and strength to power through defenders.

  • Not a versatile receiver prospect whose home will be outside the numbers most of the time.

  • Too often relies on athleticism to get separation and beat coverages rather than running routes better.

  • Has average quickness and agility which doesn't help him with his route-running.

  • He's not the most fluid route-runner currently in his career.

  • Suffered an ankle injury in 2022.

Overview

Cedric Tillman is big and powerful receiver prospect that has good potential as an outside threat on offense. His size, athleticism, and receiving skills show lots of potential as a X receiver on offense that can be a reliable enough target for a quarterbacks looking to simply throw the ball in his direction. I don't expect him to develop into reliable route-runner early in his career as his average at best agility doesn't help him when having to maneuver quickly on his routes and his lack of usage anywhere else on offense doesn't bring much versatility, His biggest issue when entering throw NFL by far will be his transition from a spread up-tempo offense to an NFL pro-style offense that is much more compact and run centric. Tillman does look like an NFL receiver and certainly with good coaching could become a reliable one at that, but he has a lot of IF's at this point in his career.
