A good number of the Tide's top targets and commits in the 2016 and 2017 cycles made the cut for the USA Today ALL-USA Teams.

Here, BamaOnline takes a look at the uncommitted recruits that made the list, who could potentially sign with Alabama this coming February or the next.

ALL-USA First Team: Offense:

Najee Harris (Bama commit), RB, Antioch (Calif.) -- Harris rushed for 2,744 yards and 36 touchdowns leading the Panthers to an 11-1 record on the season. The nation's No. 1 back for 2017 committed to Alabama last April.

Isaac Nauta, TE, Buford (Ga.) IMG Academy -- The five-star tight end helped lead IMG to a 9-0 record. Nauta has Alabama in his top three along with Georgia and Michigan, and will make his announcement on Jan. 9 at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl.

ALL-USA Second Team: Offense:

Jonah Williams (Bama commit), OT, Folsom (Calif.) -- Williams, the No. 3 tackle in the county, helped lead the Bulldogs to a 14-1 record this season. He has signed his grant-in-aid papers with the Tide and will enroll next month.

Terrance Davis, OG, Hyattsville (Md.) DeMatha Catholic -- The four-star guard helped lead the Stags to an 11-1 record and a WCAC Championship. He plans to take an official visit to Alabama in January.

ALL-USA First Team: Defense:


Derrick Brown, DT, Buford (Ga.) Lanier -- Brown, a five-star prospect, amassed 106 tackles including 42 tackles for a loss and 12 sacks helping lead the Longhorns to a 12-1 record. He recently took an official visit to Tuscaloosa prior to the Dead Period.

Lyndell Wilson (Mack), LB, Montgomery (Ala.) Carver -- The nation's No. 1 outside linebacker racked up 115 tackles, five sacks, five forced fumbles and two interceptions throughout a 3-7 campaign for the Wolverines. Florida is Wilson's top school, followed by Alabama at No. 2.

Ben Davis, LB, Gordo (Ala.) -- The five-star Tide legacy tallied 105 tackles, three sacks, two interceptions and two forced fumbles. He also helped out on offense catching 33 passes for 510 yards and nine scores leading Gordo to a 12-1 record. Davis currently has Georgia as his No. 1 school followed by Alabama at No. 2.

ALL-USA Second Team: Defense:

Mecole Hardman Jr., ATH, Elberton (Ga.) Elbert County -- The nation's No. 1 athlete who made the cut as a defensive back on the ALL-USA Team, helped lead the Blue Devils to an 11-3 record this season.

Nigel Warrior, S, Suwanee (Ga.) Peachtree Ridge -- The four-star safety helped lead the Lions to an 8-4 record on the season.

Marvin Wilson, DT, Bellaire (Texas) Episcopal -- The No. 1 defensive tackle for 2017 was a part of a 9-2 campaign this season.

I remember Chatta asking me a week or so ago if I thought we would land 9-10 more kids because I said we had that many spots left.

I guess all of these offers are proof that I was somewhat correct. I mean, we are offering 3-star H-backs the day before Christmas.

Idaho. The wife and kids left Columbus on Sunday and got up there yesterday.

We rented a house unseen that supposedly had 4 bedrooms. When she got there she found a 5th one that wasn't in the home description or in the photos they sent.

I don't think we are scrambling. I think they are just reshuffling the board after a long season.

You have to remember the coaches now have Senior film on prospects they were on the fence about based on Junior tape.

I like that we are offering guys now. It gives us something to talk about.

His brother Trent played for Harbaugh at Stanford and now plays for the Redskins. Michigan should be in good shape here.

20 Recruiting Storylines To Follow

3. It will be Alabama, Florida or Georgia for the nation’s No. 1 ranked outside linebacker Lyndell Wilson. The 247Sports Crystal Ball favors the in-state Crimson Tide, while Wilson has also named the Gators his leader in the past. There isn’t a recruiter he’s closer too than new Dawgs head coach Kirby Smart making this one of the more important recruiting battles in the past.
