The college file is still empty, so pedigree and prep production carry the grade — a 3-star recruit who came out of high school ranked No. 704 nationally, and he posted 40 tackles with two interceptions in his final high school season. He sits in the reserves at Wake Forest. 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.
