Alexander

Alexander was taken in the Supplemental Draft in 2018 by Washington and appeared in nine games as a rookie. He hasn’t played a snap since, bouncing around the league with the Rams and 49ers the last year-plus. The 24-year-old has good length at 6'3/205 but has yet to do anything with it.

The Redskins will surrender a 2019 sixth-rounder. Western Michigan CB Sam Beal was taken in the third round by the Giants, and Beal had clearly separated himself from Alexander as the draft’s top prospect. Alexander stands 6'2/195 but ran a 4.60 forty at his Pro Day with a 35.5-inch vertical and just nine bench-press reps. He had a number of off-field issues in college and was ruled academically ineligible before declaring for the supplemental draft. He’s merely a late-round flier who should get at least one year to stick at the end of the roster. Alexander is unlikely to make a rookie-year impact barring injuries.

Alexander (6'3/207) had multiple suspensions at Virginia Tech. He was ruled academically ineligible this spring and will turn pro after three seasons as a semi-regular starter. Despite off-field concerns, there’s legitimate NFL interest in Alexander. He projects as a mid-to-late round supplemental pick.

The Dolphins were one of 26 teams to attend Alexander’s Pro Day last month. In addition to Miami, Alexander has also met with the Chiefs, Colts, Jets and Saints. The 21-year-old is one of five players eligible for the Supplemental Draft on July 11 along with Western Michigan CB Sam Beal, Mississippi State S Brandon Bryant, Grand Valley State RB Martayveus Carter and Oregon State LB Bright Ugwoegbu.

Alexander measured smaller than his college profile at 6-foot-2, 195 pounds. He also posted a 35.5-inch vertical and nine bench-press reps. Hyped as a Day 2 pick, Alexander is shaping as a late-round flyer. Alexander’s middling Pro Day should solidify Western Michigan CB Sam Beal as this year’s top supplemental prospect.

The Saints, Colts, and Kansas City also met with him. It confirms Alexander’s league wide interest after 26 teams attended his Pro Day. Alexander (6'2/195) has starting traits but was suspended multiple times at Virginia Tech and his measurables (4.6 forty) would have ranked at the bottom of this year’s class. Draft Analyst’s Tony Pauline gives Alexander a third-round supplemental grade.

Per Garafolo, Alexander has passed each drug test he’s taken over the past eight months. The 21-year-old is trying to show teams that he’s on the straight and narrow after being arrested for marijuana possession in 2016. He’s looking to become the first player selected in the Supplemental Draft since Isaiah Battle in 2015.
