Grading System
Bennie Alexander | CB | Florida | Southeastern Conference
Height Weight 40 Grade
5'9 188 4.53 3.02
Fifth-year player who has seen action with the first unit since he was a red shirt freshman. Finished his senior campaign with 43/0/3 after 46/2/8 the prior season.

Speedy corner that needs a lot of work on his overall cover skills. Fast, easily runs downfield with opponents and aggressive throughout the route. Supports the run, works to break up the pass and likes to mix it up. Not a fluid or smooth corner, struggles with his footwork and prefers to side-shuffle rather than back pedal. Does not position himself correctly against the opponent, slow turning back to the ball and does not display good hands going for the pick. Rarely reads or anticipates the action and flat out lacks cover instincts. Underlying athletic skills may give him an outside shot but never showed any pattern of consistent improvement throughout college which is worrisome. Free Agent.
