Dylan Cleary brings proven high-school production and Buffalo-ready size to the safety spot
Cleary arrives at Buffalo as a 6-foot, 193-pound safety with a solid high-school résumé and the kind of profile coaches like in the back end: he was a first-team All-Conference selection and posted 50 tackles with three interceptions as a senior at Our Lady of Good Counsel. His best differentiator is range-plus-physicality—he has already shown he can tackle in volume while also creating turnovers, which hints at a safety who can help in coverage and against the run. That makes him a strong fit for a defense that wants reliable, assignment-sound play with playmaking upside.[5][1]
