| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Disrupting the quarterback via the blitz is something he will be excellent at in the future. As he gains more experience, I fully expect him to become one of the best man cover safeties in the conference. Coaches say this kid has an innate ability to get to the ball and could someday lead all safeties in picks. He's steadily improving and should end up being one of the best zone cover guys in America. |
