Scouting Notes
Auburn transfer and PFF First-Team All-SEC linebacker in 2025 (67 tackles, 2 sacks, 7 TFL, a top-10 SEC missed-tackle rate) projected as the WILL1 — the most proven defender on the roster. Honest grade on a genuine All-SEC producer; minor draft nudge in the reconcile, with the band carrying late-round interest if he repeats it.
