Scouting Report

July 29, 2026

Asa Newsom #23

Kansas State · LB · Jr · 2027 Draft · Waverly, Iowa · Waverly-Shell Rock

6-3 · 224 lbs

4.1

Long Shot

Floor 3.5 · Ceiling 4.7

#3296 overall · #396 LB of 15102

Scouting Verdict

Former 4-star (top-25 LB) stepping into LB1, but the tape is still light — 20 tackles over 9 games in '25 — earned grade reflects opportunity ahead of production.

Ceiling · 4.7

Projected 2026 starter (LB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.6) · Big 12 draft-temper · LB lower-value.

Floor · 3.5

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.6.
