Day 2 Caliber

Floor 7.1 · Ceiling 8.4

Scouting Verdict

A returning ball-hawk corner and one of the Big Ten's better 2027 NFL prospects — 11 PD in 2023, 4 INT in 2024 before an injury-shortened 2025. Physical, instinctive, and a proven playmaker on the boundary; the grade reflects genuine early-round-radar draft standing.

Ceiling · 8.4

Projected 2026 starter (DB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.6) · up-year team.

Floor · 7.1

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.7.
