| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Disrupting the quarterback via the blitz is something he will be excellent at in the future. It looks like he's going to develop the kind of strength you don’t often see at the safety position. Coaches say this kid has an innate ability to get to the ball and could someday lead all safeties in picks. He's expected to develop good instincts as he is given more playing time. |
