While Jordan Battle better projects as a strong safety in the NFL, he spent most of his time as a free safety in 2022. He’s capable of playing both positions, making him an intriguing prospect at the next level. His instincts have flashed very well at times, but he’s far from being a finished product. I think that there’s a lot of upside left in his game.

Jordan Battle scouting notes

Pros:

• Ridiculous speed. Great for the backend. 
• Very solid lateral quickness. 
• Solid, smooth hips. Can change direction very quickly. 
• Strong zone coverage instincts. Has the ability to be effective in deep coverage and underneath. Very physical at the catch point. Very effective deep coverage player. 
• Good, physical man coverage ability. Has to shore up his technique when engaging a receiver from a disguised deep coverage. 

Cons:

• Lacks the upper body strength to control his tackles. 
• Has tackling ability, but I’d like to see him play through the ball carrier more stronger. Good strong hands to corral the runner. Powerful at the point of contact. Has become a vicious tackler over the 2022 offseason.
• Still learning to take proper pursuit angles and not miss tackles as often. Tends to under pursue still. Very solid range, made some tackles that saved big plays in 2021. 
• Still learning how to play with instincts and stay true to his assignment.
