| Scouting Report | Potential |
| He has all the tools necessary to become a dominating blitzing linebacker. He'll never have superstar skills at the point of attack but he should eventually be good enough to get the job done. With the drive and passion he demonstrates, he should develop exceptional strength for a linebacker. Over time he is expected to develop a solid feel for the game. |
