Bercide is one of the most underrated 2027 DBs in Alabama, and he remains that way after the first contact period wave. Everything about this kid screams “P4 corner”. He is a tall, cut corner with the length and size to be trusted around the catch point. His foot speed is fast, helping him match receviers and run with them at critical points of the route. Just an extremely underrated player who should tack on FBS recruiting buzz in the spring. I think this could will benefit a lot from camp season.

Alex Bercide Alex Bercide 6'1" | 180 lbs | DB Auburn | 2027 State AL is a talented DB from Auburn who’s coming in as our #29 DB and #158 prospect in the class.

“At 6’1 180, Bercide has the size and frame you want in a DB. He’s big, physical, and has the instincts to quickly react in the secondary, leading to stops all around the field.

I’m seriously impressed with how well Bercide plays against the run. He does a great job flying downhill, fighting off blocks, and making impressive plays in pursuit. Bercide is a talented tackler who doesn’t allow for big carries on his side of the field- once he initiates contact, it’s impossible for RBs to keep on their feet.”

Bercide made a bunch of impressive plays last season for Auburn’s defense. Be sure to check out some of his clips below!

8/27/25: Still need to see midseason tape, but impressive blend of size, footwork, and fluid hips. Explosive when flipping hips and can change direction with ease. Looks and moves like a P4 CB prospect. Expecting him to generate more buzz as the year goes on.
