Summary
Notre Dame football is heating up for 2026, with whispers of a top ranking and a loaded 2027 recruiting class. CJ Carr’s draft timeline is hotly debated, but the new five-year eligibility rule won’t affect him—though it could boost players like Drayk Bowen’s NIL value. Albert Simien, a top interior lineman from Louisiana, and underrated QB Champ Monds, who reclassified after injury, are rising stars. Running back Kedren Young could be a short-yardage weapon if healthy, competing with Nolan James Jr. and freshmen. On defense, Leonard Moore and Tae Johnson are elite cornerstones, both projected as NFL starters. Eleven players are projected to be drafted in 2027—with some analysts even more bullish.
