Gilbert seems to be more of a complete player, but I'd be thrilled with either. Washington is more raw, but his combination of size and speed reminds me of O.J. Howard. I was impressed with both of their tapes.
I'd be thrilled with either as well.

Click on their names to see combine results. They're quite close except Gilbert's verticle is about 4" better. So that pretty well offsets Washington being 2" taller.

5* TE Arik Gilbert 6-5.5/253 GA hudl

5* TE Darnell Washington 6-7.5/261 NV hudl

OJ Howard is now 6-6/251. His HS recruitng profile only has a 40 yd time. It was 4.42, but he was 30 lbs lighter (6-5.5/221) then.

ETA: Hank has said several times recently that Bama is very much in the thick of it for Gilbert and Washington and he expects Bama to get one of them and UGA to probably get one of them.

Some Alabama commits rising, some falling in recruiting rankings

Quandarrius Robinson, whom we posted a story on earlier today, isn’t the only Alabama commit whose recruiting ranking has changed a lot in recent months.

Some Crimson Tide commits like Robinson have moved up a lot in the rankings while some others like Jayson Jones and Javier Morton continue to drop in the rankings.

RISERS

The South Florida product has moved up 31 spots in the 247 Composite rankings since he committed to Alabama May 20.

Jones-Bell was ranked as the 103rd-best overall player in the 2020 recruiting class at the time of his commitment. Now, he’s up to No. 72 and is rated as the 13th-best wide receiver in the class.

Three-star center Seth McLaughlin

The Georgia product jumped up a good amount in the 247 Composite rankings in late April, then dropped some in the rankings and is now back on the rise.

McLaughlin has risen 211 spots in the overall rankings in July after dropping 70 spots between April and late June.

Morton won't be signing with Bama. Clark, Latham and Jones might also opt to go elsewhere. I doubt Bratton will grayshirt, but McLaughlin might.
