Scouting Notes
Derrick Barksdale is a James Madison transfer projected as UCLA's nickel starter (NB1), but the data shows no stats carried over — a JMU contributor making the G5-to-P4 jump into a defined role. The projected starting nickel slot and FBS experience earn a low UDFA current; the missing production keeps it tempered.
