Scouting Verdict

Matt Ponatoski is a depth/reserve piece (Fr) — 4-star, a developing Wildcat. Minimal college passing reps to date. Projects as a developmental/depth projection on the ScoutSZN scale.

Ceiling · 8.2

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+4.8) · QB premium.

Floor · 1.1

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −2.3.
