Two-year starting safety with a ledger that reads consistent rather than flashy — 59 tackles and three interceptions in 2024, 53 and two more in 2025, ten passes defensed and three forced fumbles across the run, all of it at one of the sport's premier programs. Shuler is an every-down player whose value compounds on volume: he has started big games, held up in space, and produced takeaways in consecutive seasons, which is more than most safeties in the 2027 pool can claim. He already tested the 2026 declare deadline before returning, and consensus boards slot him around No. 204 in the class. The flag is that the numbers plateaued rather than spiked from year one to year two, and a safety without a single breakout season usually needs testing numbers to move off the Day 3 line — 2026 is his chance to make one season unambiguous. Reliable starter résumé, late-round projection in the 2027 class, with special-teams readiness as the floor.
