Scouting Verdict
The headliner and a genuine 2027 first-round consensus corner — 6-plus independent early mocks (NBC, The Athletic, USA Today, PFF, Tankathon) plus Mel Kiper peg him Round 1, several calling him a candidate for the class's top CB. A pass-breakup machine (11 PBUs, 2 INT, All-SEC) whose targets dried up because quarterbacks stopped testing him. The grade reflects that hardened R1 board consensus, not a hot take.
