Scouting Report

Dillon Newton-Short #15

Virginia · WR · So · 2029 Draft · Matoaca, VA · Matoaca

6-0 · 206 lbs

3.2

Raw Prospect

Floor 1.9 · Ceiling 7.0

#6580 overall · #870 WR of 15102

Scouting Verdict

3-star sophomore WR named projected WR1 but with only 3 catches of tape; developmental with opportunity, current grade reflects thin production.

Ceiling · 7.0

Projected 2026 starter (WR1) — real opportunity to climb; significant upside (+3.8) · up-year team · ACC draft-temper · WR premium.

Floor · 1.9

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −1.3.
