One of the biggest signs of whether a guy can make a great NFL player or not is how they play on the biggest stages. Alexander has proven that he is ready for the spotlight and looking to become of the best defensive backs/returners in the entire country.

Everyone wants to talk about Jabrill Peppers from Michigan about being the most versatile player in the country, however Alexander could give Peppers a run for his money this season.

In Louisville’s two biggest games of the season, Alexander has played his greatest. He had a couple of interceptions against Clemson and the back-breaking punt return touchdown against Florida State. He is doing things that Arizona Cardinals defensive-back Patrick Peterson is currently doing in the NFL and when he was at LSU.

Alexander has all of the ability and play-making ability to become a solid NFL starter in a few seasons. It’s going to be fun watching him continue to develop at Louisville.
