AJ Haulcy is a safety from LSU who is ranked No. 68 on my NFL Draft Top 100 Big Board. This comprehensive scouting report analyzes Haulcy’s draft potential, current mock draft trends, and where he ranks among the top prospects.
AJ Haulcy’s NFL Draft Potential
AJ Haulcy snagged five interceptions and eight pass breakups with Houston in 2024, before transferring to LSU. With the Tigers, he’s retained his high level of play, while doing so on a bigger stage. The 6’0″, 215-pound safety has an enthralling blend of coverage mobility, transition fluidity, reaction speed, ball skills, and sturdiness in support. He might not have elite reduction freedom at his weight, but he can sink and redirect well enough, and he’s disciplined managing route concepts overtop and quick to break when he keys in on QB intent.
Just as quick as he can nab interceptions, Haulcy can also lay the boom with hard hits coming downhill. He shouldn’t be used in man coverage often, and he can still shore up his tackling technique, but a starting NFL role is in his future.
CFB Week 9 Update
Amidst a poor overall showing for LSU, AJ Haulcy stood out as a lone bright spot. The senior safety snagged a clutch red-zone interception late in the first half when LSU was still within one score, and stayed keyed-in in support even as the game grew out of reach. Haulcy’s INT was a pristine example of his route recognition and anticipation.
He diagnosed the tight end streaking into the back of the end zone on a double move, and lurked into the window to undercut the throw. Haulcy’s football IQ and zone intelligence is a major strength, and it’s one component of his starter-caliber profile.
