Bud Clark 2026 NFL Draft Profile | S from TCU
Scouting Report
Bud Clark is a three-time team captain and former four-star recruit whose elite ball production makes him one of the most prolific turnover creators in the 2026 safety class. Clark entered his final season at TCU with 11 career interceptions and added 3 more in 2025 to lead the team while recording 67 tackles. At 6-2 and 190 pounds his long-limbed frame gives him the physical profile to match up against tight ends in man coverage with Bleacher Report identifying him as a potential tight end eraser at the NFL level. Clark operates best as a free-flowing defender or robber safety where he can read quarterback eyes and break on throws with urgency creating turnover opportunities. His range and closing speed are most pronounced when triggering downhill and jumping routes. He is a willing run supporter who navigates blocks effectively and contributes on special teams. However his aggressive turnover-oriented mindset is a double-edged sword as quarterbacks can manipulate him with eye movement causing him to vacate zone responsibilities. He opens his hips prematurely in man coverage allowing receivers to create separation and resorts to grabbing at the top of routes which will draw NFL penalties. His tackling technique is inconsistent frequently lunging at legs rather than wrapping up. At 190 pounds he needs to add mass to absorb blocks from NFL-caliber players. Bleacher Report graded him at 7.10 ranking him 99th overall and S10 comparing him to Calen Bullock.
