Position-relative forecast grade81.5

Safety production balances coverage results, breakups, tackling, pressure, backfield disruption, and missed tackles.

The displayed performance component is recency-weighted across qualifying 2024, 2023 seasons.

Prospect pedigree and testing are context only; qualifying NFL production is authoritative.

The non-QB forecast target is next-season position-relative production, not an independent film or talent grade.
