Alabama’s steady, physical corner with starter-level instincts
Deion Belue was a high-upside Alabama DB known for sticky coverage, physicality, and a nose for the football; in the 2012 season, he started all 14 games and posted 40 tackles, 2 interceptions, 7 pass breakups, and a 57-yard fumble return TD. He earned the starting job opposite Dee Milliner quickly after arriving as a junior-college transfer, which says a lot about his learning speed and competitiveness. If you value a corner who could handle the playbook, tackle willingly, and bring veteran toughness, Belue fit that mold well.
