Zay Mincey a top performer at All-American Bowl
No cornerback in San Antonio showed more traits or pure upside than Zay Mincey. The Daytona (Fla.) Mainland pairs plus size and length at 6-foot-1.5, 185 pounds with an 80-inch wing span with strong athleticism and movement skills. Mincey was good in coverage throughout the practice and seemed to get better as the week wore on. In Saturday’s game, we saw him make a great play in coverage, intercepting pass in the end zone. Mincey was able to stay in phase with Gatlin Bair – likely the fastest player in the cycle – and turned to locate the ball and come down with the pick. We also like his ability in run support. Cornerback is a traits-based position and he has that type of high-end ability in spades. Mincey, who committed to Alabama during the fourth quarter of Saturday’s game, gives the Crimson Tide another top talent at corner.
