Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Joey Porter Jr.
Summary

Julian Neal is a big, physical cornerback who uses his long frame to disrupt passing lanes and shut down vertical routes. He’s a smooth mover for his size, capable of matching receivers in man coverage or playing downhill in zone schemes. He plays with the aggressive mindset of a safety, consistently fighting off blocks to make hard-hitting tackles against the run. Neal is a versatile defensive back who thrives on physicality and excels in coverage.

About
  • 2021-24: Spent first four seasons at Fresno State
  • 2025: Career highs in tackles (55), PBUs (10), INT (2) and TFL (2.0) after transferring to Arkansas
Strengths
  • Uses long arms to consistently break up passes downfield.
  • Attacks downhill and tackles with the power of a safety.
  • Transitions and flips his hips smoothly despite his taller, 6-foot-1 frame.
Weaknesses
  • Can occasionally get turned around by deep comeback routes.
  • More of a “long strider” than a true explosive burner.
