Zabien Brown, CB, Alabama
His 8 missed tackles this season equals his misses over the last two years combined, and his YPC, YAC/catch allowed have each dramatically increased
He missed the Texas A&M game after a lower body injury vs Tennessee and did not appear 100% vs LSU

Kameryn Crawford, USC
Junior EDGE (#1)
Clip 1. Not a fan of his bounding, jumping up as he goes up the arc
Clip 2. He sorta slaps and swats instead of strong hand punch
Clip 3. His rush stalls out once if the OT handles his first few steps
Clip 4. Good change of direction

A 4-Star HS recruit (RB10)
Draft eligible in 2028
Very good size and frame, his combination of elusiveness and contact balance make him a challenge to tackle, while his hands and ball skills make him a passing game weapon
