| Scouting Report | Potential |
| As he gains more experience, I fully expect him to become one of the best man cover safeties in the conference. He's a ballhawk and at some point in the future you will see his name among the INT leaders. With a little more time on the field, he should develop into a top notch zone coverage guy. With more playing time, his instincts could elevate his play to an elite level. |
