Ball State · SAF · R-Jr · 2027 Draft · Saint Charles, Mo. · Chaminade

6-1 · 195 lbs

2.8

Raw Prospect

Floor 1.9 · Ceiling 3.0

#9023 overall · #780 SAF of 15102

Scouting Verdict

Depth DB (junior); limited college production on record.

Ceiling · 3.0

Projected 2026 starter (DB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.2) · MAC draft-temper.

Floor · 1.9

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.9.
