The University of Alabama is a place where wide receivers thrive.
Nick Saban recruited some of the best, including Julio Jones, Amari Cooper, Calvin Ridley, Jerry Jeudy, Henry Ruggs III, DeVonta Smith, Jaylen Waddle, and John Metchie. The Crimson Tide pulled three players from the transfer portal – Richard Mullaney, Gehrig Dieter, and Jameson Williams – and made them successful. Williams grew from a secondary option at Ohio State to the most explosive receiver in college football last year. He caught 79 passes for 1,572 yards and 15 touchdowns.
Williams will be a first-round pick in the NFL Draft.
