Scouting Verdict

Sophomore defensive end, blue-chip 4-star (n77/p9), with an early-flash freshman year (8 tackles, 1 sack over 5 games). Premium position plus top-shelf pedigree; current grade modest on small sample, but the DE2 projection and edge value lift the ceiling.

Ceiling · 8.2

2026 rotation (DE2) — some opportunity; significant upside (+3.4) · up-year team.

Floor · 3.4

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.4.
