Welcome to the 1st edition of #FlyGuysFriday.
Each week we& #39;ll highlight one DB with an article on our site & a film thread on Twitter.
Today we& #39;ve got @JaireAlexander.
Watch how he gets his hands on him at the top stunting the route, and then a perfect play on the ball. #CRFB

Here& #39;s a great example of Alexander reading the QB on the fly and making the play.
Watch how he reads Cousins& #39; eyes and then breaks on the ball with incredible speed giving Diggs no chance to reel it in.

Here we get to see Alexander use his elite speed to shut down an opposing WR.
With 4.3 speed, Brandin Cooks is one of the leagues most dangerous deep-threats and Alexander didn& #39;t give him an inch here.
Then watch how he high-points the ball perfectly swatting it away.

Here he is lined up on Cooks again.
Cooks runs a crossing pattern that usually creates plenty of separation. Not on @JaireAlexander though.
Watch how Alexander needles through the defense not allowing himself to get stuck in traffic and then plays the ball to perfection.

Here is another example of Alexander using his eyes and instincts to make an amazing play.
As he covers the slant route, he sees the FB open up in the flat and makes a break on the ball.
Textbook play on the ball here punching it out just as he brings it in.

Cooks tries another crossing route here on Alexander.
Spoiler: It didn& #39;t work.
Alexander& #39;s ability to stay with Cooks at the top of that route it elite!
That was a hard cut and 23 didn& #39;t give an inch. Then as usual, he makes a physical play on the ball knocking it out.
