Scouting Verdict

unproven true freshman DB; no college production on record yet, so the current grade is youth-appropriate — the upside is carried in the ceiling.

Ceiling · 4.4

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+2.0) · Big 12 draft-temper.

Floor · 0.6

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.8.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.
