It seems like we hear this almost every year, but, yes, the Alabama Crimson Tide is a threat to shatter the record for first-round selections in the upcoming 2021 NFL Draft.
Some players were locks before the first whistle — Jaylen Waddle, Patrick Surtain II among them. Others have played themselves into first round consideration — Mac Jones, Landon Dickerson. And, some, like Najee Harris, have first round talent at a position of lesser value but may still have kicked in the door for a first round selection — no one wants to get miss on the next Christian McCaffrey-type player.
