\nAlabama’s early departures remaining eligible included Will Anderson Jr., Bryan Bryan Branch, Jamie Gibbs, Eli Ricks and Bryce Young.<\/p>\n\n
Nick Saban usually approves potential first-round selection players, and all five do. However, after not playing much last season, Ricks will have to do very well to have any chance at his NFL combine and workouts. <\/p>\n\n\n\nSome players who may have rolled the dice in the draft chose instead to transfer and try to improve their inventory elsewhere. <\/p>\n

Jordan<\/p>\nPrediction of early crimson tide<\/h2>\n Alabama is considering double-digit selection, but nearly everyone needs to be selected to match or beat the record of 12 programs. Many balls in the air. Many teams choose early and don’t even have a coach. There are still two months until free agency starts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\u2022 Bryce Young<\/p>\n
The NFL Draft Bible predicts Young will be the first overall selection by the Colts following a trade with the Bears. <\/p>\n
“A smart, accurate passer who doesn’t force throws and rarely misses. Lacks the size of the prototype, but has a good eye for the field, feels natural in the pocket, and takes the ball downfield with a flick of the wrist. can be extruded to<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nBryce Young is already on the record for being #1 overall.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Anderson <\/p>\n
Edge Rusher has to be a top-five pick, and while some draft boards have him number one overall, the quarterback’s yearly rush impacts when he goes . The Bears are a good fit for No. 1, but he agrees with the Bible that Chicago will likely trade down in the NFL Draft. In his bible for the NFL Draft, he is in his third place behind the Cardinals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n \u2022To’oTo’o<\/p>\n
The NFL Draft Bible puts him 18th overall going to the Lions, but the general consensus so far is that he’s likely a second-round pick. Many predict that former Alabama player Drew Sanders will be the first-choice interior linebacker, and he may not make it to the first round. <\/p>\n
\u2022 branch<\/p>\n\n\nHe is a borderline first-round pick and a potential third pick for Alabama. The question is whether any team is willing to secure it so early. ESPN’s Todd McShay’s latest overall forecast has Young his No. 1, Anderson his No. 2, followed by Branch his No. 23 and Gibbs his No. 24. <\/p>\n\n\n\u2022 Gibbs<\/p>\n
I like the possibility of him sneaking into the first round as a late pick for competing teams that see him as an immediate offensive threat like the Eagles. <\/p>\n\n\n\u2022 battle <\/p>\n
He’s definitely one of the safest players in the draft, but he looks like a second or third round pick.<\/p>\n
Mark Barron, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and Minka Fitzpatrick were the only three safeties selected in the first round under Alabama’s Nick Saban era. The first round of perimeter usually drops a bit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\nAs for the rest of the draft, most of the Crimson Tide contingencies are probably somewhere between the 3rd and 6th rounds. <\/p>\n
Ratu plans well, but it’s been a strong year for the tight end.

Kicker Will Reichard accepted the invitation, but later announced that he would be staying in Alabama for another year. <\/p>\n\n\nThe Senior Bowl will take place on mobile on February 4, 2023 at 1:30 PM on NFL Network.<\/p>\n\n\nBama in the NFL Draft: <\/h3>\n Former Alabama Crimson Tide player selected in the NFL Draft\n\nRelated item:<\/h3>\n Take 1: Alabama Defensive Coordinator’s First Hot Board<\/p>\n
