| Scouting Report | Potential |
| He's got the physical and mental foundation to become a good defender against the run. From what he's shown so far, he should end up having good speed for a linebacker. With the long hours and hard work he puts in, he should become a solid tackler. He's got the natural mobility necessary to eventually become pretty good in pass coverage. |
