Ray Buford Jr. brings veteran DB versatility and NFLPA Bowl pedigree to NM State
Ray Buford Jr. is a long, experienced defensive back who gave New Mexico State 54 career tackles, 3 pass breakups, and an interception in two seasons, while earning an NFLPA Collegiate Bowl invite after 2019. At 6-foot-2 and about 205 pounds, he stood out for his physicality, versatility, and willingness to tackle, plus the kind of veteran steadiness coaches love in the secondary. He looks like a fit for a team needing an older, high-floor DB with proven game experience and special-teams value, not just a flashier stat-sheet merchant.
