Long, sticky boundary corner with NFL-caliber speed
Elam’s calling card is his blend of size, length, and recovery speed, highlighted by a 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the 2022 combine and a Florida career that included 35 games, 26 starts, six interceptions, and 26 passes defensed. He fits best as an aggressive man-coverage corner who can challenge throws at the catch point, though his college tape also showed some volatility against zone-heavy looks. If you want a competitive, high-upside CB with press-coverage traits and ball skills, he’s worth real attention.
