interesting article on which Alabama high schools have the most current roster NFL players.

quote:

Foley, Gadsden City and Vigor have three players apiece on the NFL's current rosters, more than any other Alabama high schools.

NFL teams are carrying 90 players apiece heading into the beginning of their OTAs – Organized Team Activities – over the next two weeks as part of their offseason programs. Each team will shed 37 players by the time the regular season arrives in September, but for now NFL dreams are alive for 88 former Alabama high school stars.

Sixty-four Alabama high schools have at least one player on an NFL roster.

Foley's players are San Diego Chargers offensive tackle D.J. Fluker, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones and Carolina Panthers safety Robert Lester.

Last season, the Lions led Alabama's high schools with four players who appeared in at least one NFL regular-season game. Linebacker Justin Anderson played for the New York Giants last season, but the former Foley standout is not on an NFL roster at this time.

Gadsden City's players are Green Bay Packers running back Alonzo Harris, Detroit Lions linebacker Jerrell Harris and Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick.

Vigor's players are Tennessee Titans fullback Jalston Fowler, Jacksonville Jaguars defensive tackle Sen'Derrick Marks and San Diego Chargers defensive end Darius Philon.

Those are 3 miserable places to live.

There has to be a correlation.

That list is wrong for Decatur HS.

Jerraud Powers plays for the Arizona Cardinals.

He and Rolando make two.
