Scouting Verdict

Dante Lovett is a Virginia Tech transfer CB with a real but uneven ACC resume: 20 tackles and an INT in 2024, then a quiet 6-tackle 2025. He's been a rotational P4 corner more than a locked starter. The ACC experience and 2024 flash earn a low UDFA current; the dip in 2025 caps it.

Ceiling · 4.5

2026 rotation (CB2) — some opportunity; close to ceiling (+0.5).

Floor · 3.2

Some college production — moderate floor; downside −0.8.
