Raw Prospect

Floor 2.6 · Ceiling 3.3

#6746 overall · #596 SAF of 15102

Scouting Verdict

An All-American Bowl selection and top-20-type 2022 prospect, but the college record is four starts at South Carolina with nine tackles and a blocked-punt touchdown, then a reserve role at Ohio State.

Ceiling · 3.3

2026 rotation (DB2) — some opportunity; close to ceiling (+0.1) · Sun Belt draft-temper.

Floor · 2.6

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −0.6.
