Scouting Verdict

Rotational LB (via Florida International) with some college production (3 tk, 0 sacks, 0 INT (2025)).

Ceiling · 7.0

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+4.4) · Conference USA draft-temper · LB lower-value.

Floor · 1.3

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.3.
