Scouting Report

July 29, 2026

Walker O'Steen #40

Jacksonville State · LB · R-Sr · 2027 Draft · White Plains, Ala. · White Plains HS

5.8

Priority UDFA

Floor 5.5 · Ceiling 6.1

#890 overall · #114 LB of 15102

Scouting Verdict

Led the defense in impact plays — 84 tackles, 3 INT, 2.5 sacks and a forced fumble on the 2025 CUSA title team. Returning senior starter at WLB; production is real, the athletic projection is what caps it.

Ceiling · 6.1

Projected 2026 starter (LB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.3) · up-year team · Conference USA draft-temper · LB lower-value.

Floor · 5.5

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.3.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.
