Gideon Davidson #8

Clemson · RB · So · 2029 Draft · Lynchburg, VA · Liberty Christian Academy

6-0 · 200 lbs

Priority UDFA

#1006 overall · #96 RB of 15096

Scouting Verdict

A former top-70 recruit who flashed as a true freshman and steps into the lead-back role; the talent is evident but the bell-cow production is still ahead of him. Developmental Day-3 upside.

Ceiling · 8.2

Projected 2026 starter (RB1) — real opportunity to climb; significant upside (+2.6) · up-year team · ACC draft-temper · RB devalued (ceiling capped).

Floor · 4.7

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.9.
