Scouting Verdict
The only Bronco with real 2027 draft-cycle coverage — a Draft Scout 2027 profile and a Last Word On Sports early profile projecting the middle rounds with a likely Senior Bowl or Shrine invite. Third-team All-MAC in 2025, 1,000-yard seasons in two of three years, and the projected RB1; Western Michigan averaged 33 points a game when he cleared 5.0 yards a carry and 20 when he didn't.
