Minkah Fitzpatrick and Ronnie Harrison are getting most of the ink, but they’re not the only Alabama secondary stars drawing NFL attention.
NFL Media draft analyst Lance Zierlein lists Crimson Tide senior cornerback Anthony Averett at the top of his list of college football cornerbacks to watch in 2017.
The list isn’t of the overall best corners, so players such as Fitzpatrick aren’t included, but it showcases players that NFL talent evaluators have their eyes on.
Zierlein compares Averett to former LSU cornerback Tre’Davious White, who was a first-round pick in the 2017 NFL draft, and said he has the “traits and talent to become a quality NFL starter.
