From Tony Pauline on the Alexander tid-bit:

Despite his on-the-field talent, numerous sources have told me the junior cornerback is a very difficult person to deal with off the field. He was difficult at Clemson, and some of his coaches are giving Alexander less than rave reviews to NFL teams - and I'm being kind. This is something originally brought to my attention during Clemson's pro day on March 10, and something I took with a grain of salt. But since last Friday, I've spoken with multiple sources, and it seems Alexander's off-the-field personality has been spoken about at length in war rooms around the league. In my opinion, the junior cornerback has the best ball skills of any defensive back in the draft, but if he starts to drop deep into Round 1, or even out of the first frame altogether, it'll be due to his off-the-field persona.

I'm surprised about Adams, feel bad for him. Hard to believe no one at all wanted him in for a look.

He'll get drafted late. Interesting in the comments that follow, a couple of 49er fans expecting them to pull the trigger on Prescott in the second round.
