Scouting Verdict

Jaivian Thomas is a Cal transfer RB with a real P4 flash — 626 yards and 7 TD in 2024 — but a quiet 2025 at UCLA (294 yards, 1 TD) and a Reserve projection. The 2024 P4 production is genuine and separates him from depth backs; the 2025 dip and reserve role cap him at low UDFA.

Ceiling · 4.4

Career reserve (Reserve) — limited opportunity caps the ceiling; close to ceiling (+0.1) · RB devalued (ceiling capped).

Floor · 4.0

Proven starter — high, stable floor; downside −0.3.
