Scouting Verdict
Unproven sophomore OL; grade reflects no college snaps yet, upside carried in the ceiling.
Ceiling · 4.4
Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+2.4) · AAC draft-temper.
Floor · 0.6
Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.4.
