| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Scouts think he will become far more than adequate as a run defender. As he better understands the position, his speed will allow him to always be around the ball. He's an athletic type who will someday have decent agility. With the amount of strength he's likely to develop, he won't often be overmatched. |
