How does Jedrick Wills’ decision to declare for the NFL Draft impact Alabama’s OL?

Alabama football has one draft-eligible junior that has made his plans official to turn professional.

Jedrick Wills Jr., a two-year starter at right tackle, posted via Twitter on Saturday that he will forgo his senior season. A native of Kentucky, he guided an offensive unit that allowed 12 sacks in 381 pass attempts and produced a 1,000-yard rusher in Najee Harris.

In his departure, Evan Neal will be expected to kick out to right tackle.

Neal, like Alex Leatherwood, played at guard in his first year as a starter.

The five-star from the state of Florida made the All-Freshman Team for the Southeastern Conference and did not allow a sack through 13 games in 2019.
