LB Zach McCloud 181st

Linebacker Zach McCloud enters the 2020 season with a lot of pressure on him. With dwindling playing time in 2019 because of the striker position, McCloud chose to redshirt. McCloud is back for his senior season to lead a young Miami LB corps. McCloud is listed as the 181st best prospect by the Draft Network.

C Corey Gaynor 264th

As mentioned earlier it would be shocking for Gaynor to leave for the NFL Draft in 2021 with one season of eligibility remaining. As the 264th ranked player for the draft next year, Gaynor would likely go undrafted. As a center, two more seasons in college and getting that on video will help Gaynor’s future draft status.

S Bubba Bolden 269th

Bolden is much trickier. The five games Bolden played in 2019 are the only ones he had snaps in over the last two seasons. Bolden has the potential to be much higher on the list head of the 2021 NFL Draft with a strong season in 2020. There is a strong chance that Bolden turns pro either way.

Bolden who was a teammate of Jordan’s in high school was the 59th ranked player overall and seventh-ranked safety in the Class of 2017 when he signed with USC. His talent is there to be much higher on the list. Bolden showed the ability to be a playmaker with Miami in 2019 with 11 tackles, an interception and forced fumble.
