Scouting Verdict

Peyton Waters is a R-So DB who transferred from Washington (a 4-star recruit (#231 nationally)) and projects as a DB2. Graded on a limited body of work — a rotational/depth college contributor without a pro track.

Ceiling · 8.2

2026 rotation (DB2) — some opportunity; significant upside (+3.9) · up-year team · ACC draft-temper.

Floor · 3.2

Some college production — moderate floor; downside −1.1.
