| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Has the strength and quickness that will help him become an unstoppable pass rusher. He projects to be a solid defensive end against the run. With more work, he won't have to think so much and should develop pretty good aggressiveness. His improving speed will help him make plays all over the field. |
