Scouting Verdict

Four-star redshirt-freshman (No. 487) with a blank slate; a developmental blue-chip linebacker.

Ceiling · 7.0

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+3.4) · LB lower-value.

Floor · 1.9

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