The college file is still empty, so pedigree and prep production carry the grade — a 4-star recruit who came out of high school ranked No. 379 nationally, and he posted 98 tackles with 11 sacks, 23 tackles for loss and one forced fumble in his final high school season. He sits in the reserves at Alabama. This is a projection on traits, not on tape: the grade is earned from where he starts, and the ceiling is the part worth watching, and with four years of eligibility there is runway to prove it.
