Alaka'i Gilman

Shorter in stature, with strong lower half and good length. Highly instinctive defender who can read quarterbacks and cover ground quickly to close on the football. Does well to track receivers and reacting to plays in front of him. Shows knack for tackling and open-field discipline. Roams back half of secondary with confidence, displaying terrific feel in his backpedal. Limited physically, but a capable run-stuffer closer to line of scrimmage. Must improve quickness and overall speed. Potential multi-year starter and contributor later in college career. Could garner looks from NFL Draft scouts.
