Scouting Notes
The roster's biggest over-grade: 73 tackles with 3 TFL and a sack in ten starts at Cornell — Ivy League, non-scholarship — and zero FBS snaps. He projects to start at middle linebacker, but starting is not draft stock, and Phil Steele did not include him among the six Bulls he honored.
