Alabama's elite five-star CB with true CB1 upside
Edmonds is a **6-foot-2 to 6-foot-3**, **5-star** cornerback from Sprayberry who is widely viewed as the **No. 1 CB in the 2026 class** and Alabama’s first five-star commit in that cycle.[3][4][7] What makes him special is the rare blend of size, athleticism, and sudden movement skills that evaluators say can translate to locking down the outside as a potential CB1.[5][6] He also brings proven two-way production and return-game value, which hints at competitiveness and ball skills beyond the stat sheet.[4]
