| Scouting Report | Potential |
| To a man, coaches say this kid has the potential to become the best one on one cover safety in America. He thrives on contact and will eventually evolve into one of the best tackling safeties you'll find. He's steadily improving and should end up being one of the best zone cover guys in America. He seems like a natural safety and should develop good instincts in the future. |
