Ourlads' Profile:
2018 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about SIRAN NEAL: Jacksonville State, 6000 206 4.59. Two-year starter from Eufaula, AL with considerable playing time as a sophomore. Played a different position each year playing corner, nickel linebacker, and safety. Played corner at the Senior Bowl. Has good initial footwork with a smooth pedal. Good short area quickness as a press corner. Uses his hands well to jam a receiver at the line, solid off-hand jam to reroute. Does not always use his feet to position as he relies a lot on his hands to control a receiver. As a corner he will give up inside leverage at times. As a nickel he rarely gave up leverage. Occasionally takes a false step but has good recovery ability. Mirrors cuts well and reacts to the throw with timing for the interception. Shows match-up ability in a short space and disrupts routes well. Uses his hands a little too much and may be prone to illegal contact calls in the NFL. Zone awareness, seeing threats and closing voids in zone. Shows good take-on ability using his hands to get separation and shed. Occasionally gets locked up looking for the tackle instead of defeating the block. Solid tackling skill with knee bend and drive. Finishes tackles. Makes the plays in space and can lay a hit. Will occasionally leave his feet on a tackle, does not always wrap. Takes good angles in pursuit. Has the versatility NFL teams are looking for in a hybrid sub package player. Projects well as a nickel that can cover a slot and play the run. 2017 stats: 39 T, 1 TFL, 11 PBU, 1 FF, 1 INT. BTR:left 5.00, right 5.13. OSR:28/41. Fourth/fifth round. (A-31 1/8, H-9 7/8, VJ-40.5, SS-4.28).
