Scouting Report

AJ Tuitele #9

California · LB · R-Fr · 2030 Draft · North Las Vegas, NV · Mojave HS

6-2 · 220 lbs

3.4

Long Shot

Floor 1.7 · Ceiling 7.0

#5464 overall · #585 LB of 15102

Scouting Verdict

Former USC LB (3-star, No. 685) with a monster senior HS tape (196 tackles) but only 1 FBS tackle so far at 6-2/220. The Power-4 pedigree and production history give developmental upside; the college sample is empty. Reserve with upside.

Ceiling · 7.0

Buried for now (LB3) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+3.6) · ACC draft-temper · LB lower-value.

Floor · 1.7

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

Pedigree
