Scouting Verdict
Former consensus 4-star (247 No. 203 nationally, No. 29 DL) who massively underproduced at Florida State: just 26 total tackles and 1.5 TFL across 26 games over three seasons, never a starter, buried in the rotation. Pedigree and projected role (247 calls him the "cleanest projection to the starting lineup" of BC's DT additions) give him developmental upside, but zero Power-4 production and no draft buzz cap him in the developmental band.
