| Scouting Report | Potential |
| He's always been an outstanding athlete and will someday have exceptional agility compared to other safeties. All signs point toward him developing some pretty good tackling skills in the future. With a little more time on the field, he should develop into a top notch zone coverage guy. His instincts for playing safety are never going to be very good and that will hinder his play. |
