Scouting Verdict

R-Jr DL (ex-Ga Southern), rotational SC piece (16 tkl 2025) with modest impact. Depth; UDFA flier.

Ceiling · 4.2

Projected 2026 starter (DL1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.6).

Floor · 2.9

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.7.
