I posted this in another thread about the 2018 draft. Going to be a lot of Bama players drafted.

Looking at all the draft eligible players for next year's draft and wow, Bama could set a record for most players selected in a draft.

Seniors
JK Scott
AA
Tony Brown
SDH
R Evans
B Bozeman
Robert Foster
Cam Sims
J Frazier
J King
H Jones
D Hand

Draft eligible underclassmen
M Fitzpatrick
D Payne
D Harris
Scarborough
I Buggs
C Miller
R Pierschbacher
C Ridley
R Harrision


The defense could have 10 players drafted off of it.

Not every junior will jump, I'm guessing 6 Will though. Maybe 7 if Buggs has a great year.

King and Sims are the only ones that I do not think will get drafted.

Jones will need a big year to get drafted.

Frazier is underrated I think, doesn't play much with Payne in front of him. He Could be a 4-6 rounder.

Robert Foster will get drafted on speed alone.

Lester Cotton will also be eligible for the draft next year, could jump if he has a big year,

2018 could be the first actual rebuilding type year in a while. 10+ guys drafted two years in a row will test even Alabama's roster depth. The decision of all of those juniors next year will be key.

Here's hoping nick sits the starters earlier than he has been doing once the games are out of hand.

Young players gain experience, and less chance the vets get injured. Win win.

To my surprise looking at all the mock drafts already out there for 2018 is to see players like Hand(I understand huge upside) listed in the 1st rd and C Miller as well. I have even seen T Brown and R Harrison which I doubt either are 1st rounders.

Brown has all the measureables and top end speed to go along with it. He might be the most physically gifted player on Bama's team.

Harrison will be one of the top safeties in the country next year. Good coverage safeties seem to be a high prority in the NFL now.

Hand seems to have back trouble, which might keep him out of the 1st round next year.

I understand upside and that is why OJ went in the 1st round but Hand and Miller have yet to be major contributors. Ronnie and Tony are a little different.

Nah you should be ok

OSU has 12 2 years ago and 7 this year, and are one of the favorites to win it this year.

At a certain point you just assume the next crop will be as good as the last one
