| Scouting Report | Potential |
| As he continues to improve, you'll hardly ever see him drop a pass. He has the discipline and body control to develop good route running skills over time. I think he'll get the hang of run blocking but won't ever be much better than average. With more practice, he'll be making the kind of runs that make would be tacklers look silly. |
