The New Orleans Saints have been a match in mock draft for one of the most polarizing prospects in this year's NFL draft class.
Clemson's Bryan Bresee is one of the most physically impressive defenders in the class.
His collegiate production didn't line up with his traits, but one analyst isn't worried.
NFL Media Analyst Charles Davis believes that Bresee is going to overcome hardships of the past and become a playmaker at the NFL level.
I am rooting for this young man, who has faced a great deal of adversity in his career. Bresee arrived at Clemson as one of the top recruits in the nation and was a first-team All-ACC selection as a true freshman. He was limited to four games the next year due to an ACL tear, but still earned third-team all-conference honors for the Tigers.
Tragically, he lost his younger sister, Ella, to brain cancer in September 2022, and Bresee was sidelined by a kidney infection later in the season. He still managed to play in 10 games last year and was a second-team All-ACC pick. We know he is extremely talented, and I fully expect that talent to shine when he gets to the NFL, likely as a first-round pick.
Bresee has been a popular pick for the Saints if he makes it to them at pick 29.
He has the potential to go in the top fifteen, but he has slide down boards a bit over the past month when it comes to mocks.
Only time will tell, but Davis has high hopes for Bresee's future in the NFL.
