The Tennessee native racked up 53 tackles, two pass defenses, along with a forced fumble and sack. Walker was the highest graded returning safety in the SEC last season and hits the portal looking to have an immediate impact for a contender.
19. Kempton Shine, Eastern Michigan DB: 317.30 FPTS
A four-year starter for the Eagles, Shine had his best season in 2023. The 6-0 senior tallied 56 tackles and added eight pass defenses. Shine flies around the field and will be a huge addition for a contender looking for help in the secondary.
18. Tavian Combs, New Mexico S: 317.35 FPTS
After the best season of his career in 2021 where Combs recorded 81 tackles, five pass defenses, and two picks, he suffered a devastating torn ACL early in 2022. Combs bounced back in 2023 with 46 tackles and a pass breakup and has the resilience and talent to make a difference against top competition.
