Scouting Verdict

Former 5-star (No. 30 overall) whose production hasn't yet matched the billing across Texas, Syracuse and now Ole Miss. The talent and pedigree are obvious and he projects as a starter, but scouts want to see the breakout that hasn't come. Upside play with a wide band.

Ceiling · 6.1

Projected 2026 starter (WR1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.6) · up-year team · WR premium.

Floor · 5.1

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.4.
