Clemson CB Mackensie Alexander

[TheTruth_]

How in the world did this kid not go in the 1st round?? WOW

 

[Noles229]

Draft is so deep man, a ton of good players are left on the board a lot with first round grades

Not a good sign for he kids who left early with 3-5 round grades. Do they keep getting pushed back is my question.

How do the draft grade projections work? I mean, you can give a kid (let's call him X) a 2nd round grade, then 100 more underclassmen put in their names to get projections &, lets say, 75 of them are projected better than X. X has already made himself eligible for the draft ... Do they reevaluate his projection and say "now you're a 5th round projection"?

I don't know how bad he was injured, but his toughness was questioned when he did not work out at the combine.

 

[407nole]

He had zero interceptions

 

[noles756]

I would of taken him over Eli Apple all day.

I would of taken him over Eli Apple all day.

And Burns

 

[CarlsbadNole]

Apple had one pick last year but no mention of his ball skills...and it looks like the media is all over OSUs jock today...one saying "OSU is the preeminent college program now",

vomit comet statement to me

 

[renegadewarrior9]

I think his attitude was a bit of a turnoff to teams.

 

[renegadewarrior9]

He had zero interceptions

And he gave up zero TDs in two years. It has nothing to do with stats.

Exactly. People pointing out Alexander's stats, could do the same thing for Jalen this year.

 

[bonham rules]

Didn't he give up the long td in doak last year to Greene?

 

[renegadewarrior9]

Yes. Forgot about that.

Ok so he gave up one touchdown in two years. Still very impressive.

You don't like those apples?

 

[kelleynole#1]

Apple has no red flags at all and Giants are VERY conservative now after the Plexico and JJP off field issues, they just don't want the noise

 

[number1seminole]

And people on here had him and Hargreaves graded better than Ramsey.

 

[Nole Daddy]

Well a lot of people on here ragged on Ramsey the whole year. Said he was soft and not that good. I sure didn't hear that from people outside the program who evaluated him.

I get that.. but I have to say that was a bit of a reach...

 

[Pox2]

He reportedly turned a bunch of teams off with his personality.

 

[PANole1]

Hoping he slides to my Raiders at 14 tonight.

 

[jrnix11]

He had zero interceptions

So did Jalen this season. Thinks teams were pissed he didn't work out at the combine and wasn't hurt. He also interviewed badly.

 

[BCD_NOLE]

[helmetnuts]

Other needs or not, I'd take him as the Jags GM and have 2 lock down CBs for the next 5 years

 

[danoleman]

Rashad put one of those old Michael Irving veteran moves on Alexander. He went inside and gave him the slight push making him lose his balance. Great veteran play by a great player.

Again this site has become such a Clemson love fest board. Not flaming you but truth be told. MacKenzie Alexander has a big mouth and he IS OVERRATED. Many here were bashing Jalen for being overrated. Alexander was often beaten many times last year but CU's D line put a ton of pressure on QBs or the QBs just didn't see his blown assignments.

Alexander had 0 INTs. He's overrated.

 

[cinemanole]

This is what I heard too. Apparently not a great guy, and not well-liked by his teammates.

I'm careful not to get into it. But if you go back and look at Clemson's game film, he was beaten several times and got turned around. Because of the DEs and because Venebles loves to blitz with LBs he didn't get caught. He's overrated.

Perhaps after they win an NC. Personally, I hope that day never comes. I don't give a damn about conference pride.

 

[jwcnole]

He's loudmouth punk who played at Clemson. Hope he freezes to death in Minnesota.
