Barrett Carter - 6'1 235 - Will Linebacker

Former 5 star number 1 ranked LB in country. Doubled as a Running back coming out of HS. Elite tier athlete and football player. I think he's got a chance to be special and one best to come out of Clemson. Started off at SAM/Nickle and even played FS and SS before moving to WILL JR season. Elite closing speed and good change of direction. He'll draw lazy comps to Isaiah Simmons but they are nothing alike outside of being good athletes at LB and moving around positions in the scheme. Simmons was a WR turned Safety turned LB. Carter is a natural in the box. Reminds me of Devin White. 

Here's what Dabo thinks - “He is one of the best football players I have had in my 20 years at Clemson. He is just a pure football player. The guy can play anywhere. I think he’s got a chance to be a top-15, top-20 pick (in the 2025 NFL Draft), and he’s not that this year,” Swinney said. “He’s a guy that’s obviously on everybody’s radar and he’s positioned himself, there’s no question, to get drafted. But he’s just one of those kids that wants to finish. He wants to finish. I think had he got a first-round grade, he wouldn’t be here. It probably would’ve been an easier decision."
