Clemson dipped into the transfer portal this offseason and added four defensive backs, including two at the safety position – Corey Myrick from Southern Miss and Jerome Carter III from Old Dominion.
Myrick and Carter are both quality portal pickups. In fact, they are two of the highest-graded transfer safeties this offseason, according to Pro Football Focus (PFF).
Myrick (87.3) leads the way as the highest-graded transfer safety in all of college football, per PFF, which also ranks Carter (76.3) as the eighth highest-graded transfer safety.
Both players have two seasons of eligibility remaining, and Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said last month that the staff hit on their top safety targets in Myrick and Carter.
