KJ Bolden

Dean Kindig

5 solos, 1 asst in Bills-scouted game vs 'Bama. Starks' replacement immediately impacted Georgia's defense as a 2024 true freshman, All-SEC honors in 2025. Noted for his range, high football IQ, trigger. Covers so much ground, and an exceptional open field tackler. Sparks: "Despite an undersized frame, he's a true center‑fielder with excellent ball skills in both man and zone, consistently playing bigger than he measures. He diagnoses routes early, triggers with confidence, and has that rare ability to stay calm and track the ball like a wideout. Whether he's matching vertically, squeezing space from depth, or baiting throws from the post, Bolden's instincts and finishing ability make him one of the most complete playmakers in the country."

Julio Humphrey

Dean Kindig

Transfer from Georgia where Jahmile Addae (now Dolphins) was key in recruiting him. Backs up DezzRicks, is arguably the fastest CB in the class --but he's slower than MaxHairston, but at 195 lbs, he's 10 lbs heavier than Max. Humphrey spent three seasons at Georgia, even leading their 2024 SEC Championship team with four pass breakups. However, despite his immense talent, he struggled to lock down a permanent, unshakeable starting role in the Bulldogs' hyper-competitive secondary. Value would be as a PFA. He prefers to go by "Julio Humphrey"—a nickname he adopted growing up because his favorite player was Julio Jones. PRIOR TO TEXAS A&M: Played three seasons at Georgia appearing in 23 games, including 10 starts and a team leading four pass breakups on the 2024 SEC Championship team. Totaled 21 tackles, including 18 solo takedowns and had five pass breakups. Saw action in nine games as a reserve defensive back in 2023, while he appeared in three games in 2022. 131 snaps. 2 receptions allowed, 10 yards allowed, 42.4 Passer Rating when targeted.
