Scouting Verdict

True-freshman four-star DL with no college reps; the pedigree is real but the current is capped near his recruiting level with zero proven tape. Developmental depth. Ceiling holds the upside.

Ceiling · 8.2

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+4.6).

Floor · 1.6

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −2.0.
