Dee Milliner Scouting Report

Alabama Crimson Tide cornerback Dee Milliner appears to be the best at his position in this year's upcoming 2013 NFL Draft. The tall, rangy junior has really come into his own this season both in coverage and run support.

Milliner plays with a chip on his shoulder, does not shy away from contact, and plays with a focused intensity to ensure his man does not come down with the ball. He is not a ball-hawk who goes for a lot of interceptions, but he does have long arms and a knack for breaking up the passes. His play recognition and ability to anticipate the route is very good and seems to come naturally with him. There is very little wasted motion in his feet as he can close quickly.

When in press coverage, he holds his own and is further along than most college corners. He has room on his frame to grow and has adequate speed. Milliner is aggressive and willing against the run. He seals the edge and looks to make contact.

Milliner's strong combine reaffirmed his highly-regarded draft stock. He projects as as a Top 10 pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.
