“Skinner runs in the 4.5s with close to a 7-foot wingspan. He’s also got some strength with a 315 pound power clean. We’ve seen him show some flashes on the field, but Skinner will need to continue refining the technical aspects of his game. With that said, the physical upside is high.
Jaleel Skinner, who is ranked as the No.17 player (#1 TE) in the On300 rankings, joins Jeremiah Alexander, Ty Simpson, Tyler Booker, and others in Alabama’s class, which ranks #1 in the SEC.
