4. Jaire Alexander (90.5)

Getting back to the secondary for a moment, Jaire Alexander has firmly entrenched himself on the shortlist of the top cornerbacks in the NFL. And in just his third year and just 23-years-old, he’ll be in the conversation for a long time to come.

Despite lacking the size of other elite cornerbacks, Alexander has no issue playing physical at the point of attack. He brings the oomph to the receivers or ball-carriers and makes sure the physicality is ramped all the way up.

When you combine his toughness with his athleticism, it’s game over for opposing wide receivers. No matter who he covered in 2020, Alexander put the clamps on them. He was a huge weapon for Pettine and this defense throughout the season, finishing as PFF’s highest-graded corner.
