DaKaari Nelson impresses with size and range at Alabama-Mississippi All-Star practices

Charles Power•

Penn State safety commit DaKaari Nelson caught our eye at Alabama-Mississippi All-Star practices with his plus size and range as a run defender. Nelson is the biggest of the Alabama defensive backs, looking around 6-foot-3, 195 pounds. He drew praise from the coaching staff on a number of occasions for his effort and effectiveness in pursuit drills. We also saw Nelson close on play and break up a pass in 11-on-11 work in Wednesday’s morning practice. It will be interesting to see where Nelson ends up from a size perspective after he spends time in a college strength program, given his size and frame.
