| Scouting Report | Potential |
| One day people are going to look at this kid and be amazed at the speed he possesses for a safety. By the time he's through, he will have established himself as one of the strongest safeties in the nation. He's learning more every day and coaches think he will someday pick off his share of passes. With a little more time, he'll learn to consistently bring down any runner or receiver that comes his way. |
