  Draft Scout by Conference









  Caylin Newton stepped onto brother Cam's old stomping grounds this summer when Caylin signed up with Auburn as a graduate transfer walk-on, after a successful stint striking out on his own at Howard. Caylin led Howard at quarterback and made a name for himself there, winning MEAC Rookie of the Year and making history as part of an epic upset victory over UNLV. But, of course, Cam casts a monumental shadow across the Plains. His statue stands outside the stadium, and at Auburn, Caylin is back to trying to make his own name again in the place where his brother's legacy will hang over everything he does. Still, at least within the confines of Auburn's practices closed off from the outside world, Caylin is doing just that. He's quickly building his own reputation. "I've just been so impressed with his attitude, his physicality, and really probably more than anything his want-to," Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn said of Caylin last week. "He's desperate to help the team, so that's been really good from him."

That word, 'physical,' tracks with the rest of the wide receivers who have welcomed Caylin in. So does another word, 'natural' - as Caylin has made a quick switch to receiver even after playing quarterback at a high level in college football. "I wouldn't have believed he played quarterback at Howard because he's so physical," Auburn's star receiver, Seth Williams, said Wednesday. "He changed his game to receiver and made a smooth transition. "I feel like he's going to be a good contributor for us because he's got sure hands." - Opelika-Auburn News
