Scouting Report Potential He's a ballhawk and at some point in the future you will see his name among the INT leaders. As he gains confidence in his secondary duties, he'll turn into an outstanding tackler. He really seems to 'get it' and coaches think he will become a real force in zone pass coverage someday. His instincts for playing safety are never going to be very good and that will hinder his play.
