  Draft Scout by Conference









  Before Nick McCloud's January plunge into the transfer portal was 24 hours old, the Notre Dame football staff had already digested two of his NC State game tapes and started to amass background info. The more people they talked to about the 6-foot-1, 190-pound Wolfpack captain and the more they got to know him personally, the less he felt like a contingency and the more he projected as an asset. McCloud's addition as a grad transfer addresses the position group on the 2020 Irish roster that has been laden with the most uncertainty and fewest absolutes since ND clobbered Iowa State, 33-9, in the Camping World Bowl, Dec. 28 in Orlando, Fla.

With 37 career games and 21 starts at NC State, he has more experience than any other cornerback on the Irish roster, including sixth-year returnee Shaun Crawford - by 13 games and 10 starts. Six of the existing eight corners on the roster have freshman eligibility, either as redshirts or as true freshmen. McCloud also has length the two projected starters at the moment, the 5-9 Crawford and 5-11 junior TaRiq Bracy, don't have. And while he doesn't possess the elite speed of say recently graduated track and field moonlighter Pride, McCloud's 20 career pass breakups hint at strong technique. - South Bend Tribune
