Scouting Report

Joshua Pierce #15

California · EDGE · R-Jr · 2028 Draft · Detroit, MI · University Liggett HS

6-4 · 260 lbs

3.5

Long Shot

Floor 2.4 · Ceiling 3.7

#5303 overall · #566 EDGE of 15102

Scouting Verdict

G5 (North Texas) transfer at 6-4/260 with a low pedigree (2-star) but a productive flash (14 tackles, 2 sacks). Functional rotational edge body without a clear pro trait. Depth/rotational grade.

Ceiling · 3.7

Career reserve (Reserve) — limited opportunity caps the ceiling; close to ceiling (+0.2) · ACC draft-temper.

Floor · 2.4

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.1.

Pedigree

2★ recruit · Natl #2811 · Pos #205 · State #73

Path: North Texas → California
