Film Room: Jaire Alexander is one of the most underrated cornerbacks in the NFL

- After having a franchise quarterback, there’s a strong argument that the second most important position on a team is having an elite shutdown cornerback on defense. Having a cornerback that can singlehandedly eliminate an offense’s main threat is absolutely critical in today’s NFL. When you look around the league, one team that I think has that already is the Green Bay Packers. They have a cornerback by the name of Jaire Alexander.
In Alexander’s three short seasons in the NFL, he’s developed into one of the premiere players at this position. His ability to shadow and cover some of the league’s best receivers and eliminate them from the game plan is what makes him extremely valuable. In three back-to-back-to back weeks he did just that. When he was in coverage in week 4, he completely blanketed Calvin Ridley. In Week 6 he took out Mike Evans and in Week 7 he also eliminated Will Fuller as well. He didn’t allow a single reception in those three games when he lined up against those top receivers. Even in his most recent game against the Vikings, he allowed just a single reception for 12 yards against the emerging rookie Justin Jefferson. In this video, I breakdown how exactly he does that.
This video is just about 7 minutes. Sit back, relax, and I hope you enjoy it!

Alright, this video is FINALLY out! Sorry for the long delays. It's been a really weird two weeks. I'll have another video out later this week as well as my present to all of you guys for surviving without me! :)
TOUGH AF NOW 😆😆😆
One thing I think you missed is Jaire’s ability to get off blocks on pitches to the flat and screen plays. Dude almost can never be blocked when it a screen type play or just a quick pitch to the outside just like the play when he smashed into thielen causing Stefon diggs to lose around 10 yards
Keep it up bro....that Krueger kid is horrible 😫
He is SO underrated and deserves so much more attention. Him and Jalen Ramsey on the same team would be deadly. 💀🔥🔥🔥
depending on the rest of the positions that would be a goat defense...
Cap
@@Sproad1ku must be the dumbest person to ever exist if u disagree with that
Jaire single handedly kept Green Bay in the game. Picking off Tom Brady twice is absolutely insane
3 times
@@bones8055 yeah I don't understand why we kicked a field goal though we would've won if we didn't
@@balloon4512 facts
I love jaire and the packers talent on defense. Just wish they were a little tougher
The interior of the defense, D Tackles and inside linebackers are a serious problem
I'd agree but they were comically bad against Cook last week. The number of leaping missed tackles was unbelievable...
They’re aren’t physical at all
@@tacosrock11_34 this is the NFL, everyone is physical, they just arnt that good
@@jamesonevers3262 aside from kenny clark yep
This has quickly become one of my favorite CZcams channels to watch
He’s the best corner rn
He’s the best right now this season. If he continues to do this he will be an all time great. He is amazing
A shutdown corner is a key to every great defence. I’m a Vikings fan and I just hate playing them. I can’t believe we won this past weekend, we need to lose and get a nice draft pick
A true number 1 CB and 2 or 3 individual successfull pass rusher are definitely the building blocks I want to have on a defense.
We have no rushing d... Giving away Blake Martinez for Kirksey was just not smart 😂
@@GeorgIV-ek2wq I mean both suck in their own way kirksey is a much worse run stopper and Blake is to slow and horrendous in coverage
@@user-dn3ev9fw4h Dawg have you seen Blake in New York?? He's ballin, one of the best MLB's in the NFL this season
@@sidsrivastava6987 yeah he’s a great run stopper leads the league in tackles I believe but his coverage was horrendous hope he fixes his it for the giants though he just didn’t fit in our system he was dropping to coverage almost every play
Great breakdown I'm surprised it took me this long to find your channel
I requested this! I work out with Tramon Williams, he was very high on Jaire.
Tell Tramon to tell Arod to run 27 Tampa against those bucs linebackers lol
@@ic8839 lol I’m just praying for the win
Nice Video!😊 Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪😁
I was saying he would be a top 5 corner the beginning of last year. His talent is so obvious
Love corner videos
Can u make a vid on How to hawks can tweak their defensive scheme to make it better
3rd favorite player all time ♥️🙅🏼♂️ he will lock up any all time receiver you put on him 🤞🏼. most underrated by far 😪
Yea, he's FIRE
What are the best/ most important advanced stats for some of the positions?
He sitting on everything. His off man is dangerous cause he can break so fast
Can you do a video about what made the Steelers so successful this year ? Plzzzzzzzz
I mean he could have its to late but i got a answer beating bad teams and angering your oppents until you get hit harder then a truck
Please do a free safety next please safety is my favorite position
Talk about getting the Revis treatment 🤣
Im a huge GB fan, but until we get some decent defenders like Kenny Clark in the middle and seriously upgrade our porous LB corps, we are going nowhere. A good JV team can run on us. Rodgers cannot drag us to the promised land by himself.
There were a lot of teams in that late second-round pick range this year who were in desperate need of inside linebacker help, and surprisingly they all let Jeremy Chinn slide. While some might argue he's better at Safety, I feel like he would've made the perfect anchor to the Packers defense in the middle.
As much as people hated on the Jordan Love pick, at least that one I could understand. The one that shocked me was AJ Dillon. I just don't see where he fits into their short or long-term plans, and they clearly had bigger needs on defense. Hopefully that doesn't come back to bite them in the arse in the playoffs.
They historically don't value MLB. Dean Lowry(DE) is on a 3 year 20.3 million deal from 2020-2022. He has to step up.
You were wrong but if you're a GB fan that's a good thing!
@@rickycouture7224 jones's contract is up after the season. Dillon could replace him next year. The packers are a draft and DEVELOP team, so their draft picks are almost never meant to be big contributors for 2-3 years.
Look at Rashan Gary for a recent example. People questioned why they took him when they just signed Preston Smith to a big 3 year deal. Well, they didn't plan on using Gary much for the first 2-3 years, they like to build players into what they want before they let them loose in GB. That's why their picks will sometimes not make sense for that year, but they are always thinking long term so they often times end up making sense in a couple years.
@@AdamB34 -- Every team that drafts young talent is a draft and develop team. The only real value in young players in today's NFL is that they play under a rookie wage scale, making it all the more important for them to perform while their cap number is low.
As for Rashan Gary, you definitely don't take a player at his position with the #12 overall pick unless you have great confidence in him being an immediate contributor. They took a shot on his talent because they didn't believe his college production (or lack thereof) equaled out to who they saw in the pre-draft process. Guaranteed, though, if they could re-do that pick that they'd have taken someone else.
But in regards to AJ Dillon, you definitely don't draft an RB to be on some three year plan. That's the position you most need to see value in immediately, so unless they do let Aaron Jones walk -- which I think would be a huge mistake -- then it will have made no sense for them to invest such a high pick in AJ Dillon. It's just not their style, especially not with Rodgers having such chemistry with Aaron Jones both in the run and pass game.
IMO, the Packers just have a bad habit of outthinking themselves. They place too much stock on what might be rather than on what is. They needed a receiver to line up across Davante Adams. They've had multiple chances to land stars at the position, including taking Jace Sternberger just one pick ahead of Terry McLaurin. What it comes down to is just poor player evaluations. It happens, so it's not like they deserve too much blame... But I certainly wouldn't take the angle that they somehow made those moves with the intention of those players being what they are right now. I would hope that even they realize their own mistakes.
Can we get a vid on Jeff okudah recent improvements??
Need this video
Can we get some more Safety videos🔥
🦁
Not a packers fan but watched many corners like Deon sanders rod Woodson Charles Woodson champ baily ..this jaire Alexander in my opinion is the very best in the game period better than Ramsey he can play zone and man he is the truth
The Packers have such a talented secondary... just need to work in their rushing game
eh aaron jones can pop off and we need to work on our defense a bit more
I was so excited when the packers drafted him 😂 and he hasn’t disappointed, I’m so glad we got him
Can you talk about Justin Simmons?
Yup best safety last year and still top 3 this year. You should look at Bates III from Cincy and John Johnson III from Rams game films this year. They the other top 3 safeties right now.
Even though I only just became a fan of the league and the Packers this year, I'm honestly so ashamed of myself for not being more aware of this man. What the fuck was I watching?
To be honest if only josh Jackson could develop the way jaier has developed maybe we’d have the best pass defense
🔥🔥🔥 Xavien next!
Can you do jamaal adams
What happened bro ur not posting anymore
You should do a video on your favorite player in the NFL
And do NOT run a wr screen on this man! He eats that shit up every single time!
James Bradbury next
You should do a video on dk metcalf!
Tuff breakdown
this is just me but i kinda feel like Alexander got lucky on a couple routes but he is still shutdown
Nah its skills he dont get lucky on routes
@@arthurmorgan862 if u look closely Matt Ryan didn’t even look ridleys way on a couple plays where he was wide open
...I'm not sure how you can be the #1 PFF rated CB in the league and have announcers talk about it every single week and somehow still be underrated?
So don't start Brandon Aiyuk this week..😂
Well Covid protocol took all the guesswork out of it.
Big fan of jaire Alexander but I hate the packers🐻⬇️
Why? 😂
Stefan diggs’ son
Cap
And he stayed shutting out wrs rest of the season
C’mon you know punter is the most important position
Boom. First
Top 2 behind ramsey
he’s better then ramsey
@@patek9789 true
No
And Denzel Ward ALL of this every week... and gets 0 credit.
Better than Ramsey
Underrated? dude was a top 3 corner this year lol
look at the date stupid
@@jackb750 lmao facts😂
Your stats are irrelevant lmao Jefferson is winning 10/10 on jaire they have the worst run d who would pass
Jaire alexander is better than jalen
He's overrated
Ok boomer
