| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Most scouts project that he will grow into one of the best pass rushers in the college game. There is absolutely nothing stopping him from becoming a devastating tackler in the future. He's got a mean, nasty disposition that will eventually translate into a very aggressive style of play. Speed won't ever be outstanding but he should have enough to play the position. |
