22. Kenyan Drake, RB, Alabama
Year: Senior
Height, weight: 6'1", 202 lbs
A broken leg cut Kenyan Drake's junior year in half, preventing him from building on a career that saw him go from a garbage-time running back as a freshman to a key piece of Alabama's rushing attack in 2013.
Had he been able to finish out the season, Drake figured to have become even more integral as a pass-catcher, as before the injury he showed off his speed with a pair of long touchdown receptions, including an 87-yard TD against Florida.
All signs point to Drake making a full recovery from his injury, according to D.C. Reeves of the Tuscaloosa News.
"He expects to be healthy for the start of spring practice," Reeves wrote in December after Drake was seen "jumping and celebrating" on the field after Alabama beat Missouri in the SEC title game.

3. Tony Brown, CB, Alabama
Year: Sophomore
Height, weight: 6'0", 198 lbs
Tony Brown played in all but one game for Alabama this past season, serving as a reserve defensive back who registered only 10 tackles (one for loss) and broke up a single pass. With the Crimson Tide losing several members of their secondary group to graduation or early NFL entry, Brown figures to see a lot more playing time in 2015.
That means we'll get to see more of his blazing speed, which is getting honed in the offseason as part of Alabama's indoor track team.
According to the school's track website, on Saturday Brown ran the 60-meter hurdles in 7.89 seconds, which ranks as the seventh-best time in school history and No. 15 in the NCAA this season.
