Scouting Verdict

Productive returning RB (via Cincinnati) — 198 rush yds/1 TD, 8 rec (2025). Grade benchmarked to an AAC draft-outcome projection, not inflated.

Ceiling · 4.4

Projected 2026 starter (RB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.3) · AAC draft-temper · RB devalued (ceiling capped).

Floor · 3.6

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.5.
