Scouting Verdict
Young 3-star (So) with no production yet; developmental tight end depth.
Ceiling · 7.0
Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+3.6) · ACC draft-temper · TE lower-value.
Floor · 2.1
Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.3.
