| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Coaches feel he has a knack for rushing the QB and will be a disruptive force in the future. Has the athletic background to develop some good agility with a little more time and effort. He is projected to be a physical playmaker with tackling ability in the upper echelon. Coaches feel he will eventually develop an instinctual feel for the game that is very rarely seen. |
