Raw Prospect

#9333 overall · #941 LB of 15102

Scouting Verdict

3-star LB3, R-Fr; no college production. Young developmental linebacker.

Ceiling · 7.0

Buried for now (LB3) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+4.2) · Big 12 draft-temper · LB lower-value.

Floor · 1.1

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.7.
