Players can and do outperform projections if those projections are innacurate. I believe that the Projected line in the ratings screen will change to match the rating in a category rather than show it as being surpassed.
His projected ratings after signing from the draft (0 ADV) in a few categories have been surpassed:
Draft Proj Current
GLO 28 30
CON 69 76
DUR 19 22
TEM 96 96
CON 20 24
POW 7 8
BUNT 60 65
All other ratings 4 seasons later have the same projections as they did when he signed. In the categories above, his projections now match his current ratings.
