247Sports has compared Shaw to Chicago Bears’ defensive tackle Eddie Goldman.

247Sports’ scouting report of Shaw:

Has a large, wide-hipped build with a thick lower half. Already holds over 300 pounds in the offseason prior to his junior year. Will need to guard against getting too heavy over the final two years of his high school career. Light-footed athlete and makes a variety of impressive plays while lining up at defensive end and on the interior. Shows the ability to bend and sink his hips on contact and has the strength to forklift opposing offensive linemen into the backfield. Also shows the speed to track down plays in pursuit. Flashes some unique athleticism as a standup edge rusher at over 300 pounds. Plays fast and has quick recognition skills. Ultimate ceiling as a prospect may be determined by how he continues to progress physically throughout high school but has displayed a high floor due to his already projectable size and skills. Projects as a multi-year starter at the Power Five level with the upside to develop into an early round NFL draft selection.
