Scouting Verdict

Team-high 3.5 sacks and 5 TFL as a redshirt sophomore returning starter on the edge — the best young piece here, and a 2028 file rather than a 2027 one.

Ceiling · 7.0

2026 rotation (DL2) — some opportunity; real room to grow (+1.5) · AAC draft-temper.

Floor · 4.4

Some college production — moderate floor; downside −1.1.
