Scouting Verdict

Unproven redshirt sophomore DL; grade reflects no meaningful college snaps yet, upside carried in the ceiling.

Ceiling · 4.4

2026 rotation (DL2) — some opportunity; significant upside (+2.1) · MAC draft-temper.

Floor · 0.9

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.4.

No composite recruiting rank on file.
