Experienced, physical South Carolina safety with proven tackling production
R.J. Roderick is a battle-tested defensive back whose value comes from reliability, physicality, and game experience rather than flash; across his South Carolina career, he logged 31 games, 22 starts, 134 tackles, and 2 interceptions. He has been viewed as an NFL safety prospect and earned a solid scouting grade, which fits the profile of a dependable, instinctive secondary piece who can help against the run and bring leadership to the back end. The main question for a team is upside, but the floor is attractive.
