The Notre Dame Fighting Irish landed another top recruiting class on National Signing Day, and head coach Brian Kelly has already turned his attention to the 2016 recruiting class. Here are the guys he's hoping will headline the class:
3) OT Tommy Kraemer![](http://thecatholicbeat.sacredheartradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/75-tommy-kraemer.jpg)
Kraemer has already signed with Notre Dame, and the five-star tackle will make an impact in South Bend right away. At 6’5″ and 305 pounds, he has strength that makes him a great run blocker along the size and footwork to be an effective pass blocker.
2) OT Ben Bredeson
A mammoth 5-Star tackle from Virginia, Bredeson is the #5 OT in the Class of 2016. The Irish have made him a high priority, and while they aren’t currently the favorites to land his signature – Wisconsin and Michigan have been chasing him for years already – he’s no doubt going to hear a lot more from Notre Dame in the coming months.
1) DT Rashan Gary![](http://imgick.nj.com/home/njo-media/width960/img/njcom_photos/photo/2014/11/05/-3814383076fd9167.JPG)
Gary is the top defensive tackle and second overall prospect in the country, and has every top program interested because of his superior strength. He is already built for the college game at 6’4″ and 285 pounds, and he should make an immediate impact for whoever signs him. Notre Dame is joined by Alabama, Michigan, Penn State, and Ohio State in his top five.
