Najee Harris - 5* RB - #1 RB for his class, #2 overall
Jerry Jeudy - 5* WR
Patrick Surtain - 5* CB - #1 CB for his class
LaBryan Ray - 5* SDE

We have some good 4* too, like Devonte Smith.

None of the players you listed are starters except for Jeudy, though they all will be important contributors.

The 5 stars on offense:
Tua, J. Williams, A. Leatherwood, Jeudy, D. Harris

5 stars on defense: M. Wilson, D. Moses

So 7 of Bama's 22 starters are 5 stars and that is more than usual. Bama has had great talent but it has not been 5 stars on top of 5 stars. I doubt they've ever had 5 on offense like this year, probably no more than 4, one time (Cam, OJ, Henry, Ridley), but idk.
