| PRO | CON |
|---|---|
| All-around corner with a mean streak of toughness. Left little concern after returning from injury and still elevating his game. Controlled the boundary with fluid hips and great length. Frame would fit well in every scheme. | Not a flyer with his speed. Will give up separation if he loses at the line of scrimmage. Needs some seasoning when it comes to spacing in zone coverage. Has an injury history to consider. |
OVERVIEW: One of the more consistent performers throughout his career who scouts will review. Started at Southeastern Louisiana, where he was named to the All-Southland team in both 2021 and 2022, before his move to Baton Rouge. In 2023, he may have earned similar honors in the SEC before suffering a season-ending injury after eight games. Alexander returned in Week 2 of 2024 and didn't miss a step, appearing in every game from there on out with two interceptions, four pass breakups, 33 tackles and 2.5 tackles for loss.
