Alabama Defense:
9. *Patrick Surtain
II- CB Alabama, 6-2, 203, #2- He is my
9th rated player in the 2021 NFL Draft Preview: Long tall CB with great
smarts and instincts. He doesn’t give up much. I mean, WRs can struggle
to just get off the line. He doesn’t give up anything. Knows how to cut
off the WR. Knows how to trap him on the line:

25. x-LaBryan Ray-
DT/DE, Alabama, 6-5, 292, #89- Big D-end who you cannot run at.
Quicker and more agile than a guy his size should be. Super athletic and
twitchy. He can get cut blocked to the ground, power up instantly and hit
the RB. Great eye discipline, he had a Sack against Mississippi State on
a Flea-Flicker:

52. *Josh Jobe-
CB, Alabama, 6-1, 192, #28- Young. He has some snap in his hips.
Plays the man not the ball. When he gets his hand on the WR first he
wins. Best in Press. Twitchy. Tall. Aggressive. Good hitter. Not afraid
of the physical stuff. He plays Off. Good job holding his position
infront of the WR. Primarily a special teamer last season:

67. **Christian Barmore-
DL, RS-Soph, Alabama, 6-5, 310, #58- When he gets the QB in his
sights, he smacks him down. Big huge dude who devastates QBs when he
tackles them. He looks bigger than his listed weight. Remarkable size,
speed, strength combo, with terrific football skills, instincts and
smarts:

82. *Dylan Moses-
6-3, 235, ILB, Alabama, #32- He did not play in 2020. I had him rated at
82 in 2019 and 92 in 2020: I’m not his biggest fan. I was not a big
fan of Mack Wilson, who I though was slow to the hole. He needs to have
more impact plays this season. He played OLB in Even fronts sometimes and
in odd fronts at ILB. He led Alabama last season (2018) with 86 tackles:

#40
Joshua McMillon- LB, 6-3,
240, Gr-
Alabama Offense:
#4 Mac Jones-
6-3, 214, QB,- He has been
on fire all season. Now we are going to see him play under pressure. He
is still a Rs-Jr, and is likely to stay in school. Good size. Good arm.
Good eyes. He has a lot of good, but I don’t know how much great? That
seem to be his question.
My biggest
worry is that he is a bit of half-field thrower. He will struggle to
throw short and intermediate to his left. Most of his bad throws are to
his left. He is a one-year wonder. He should probably stay in school to
for his Rs-Sr season to get another year of experience.
What I like
the best is that he is great moving out of the pocket, to his right, and
throwing on the move to avoid pressure. He is not a statue in the pocket.
He has made a lot of his best throws fleeing the pocket to the right and
throwing deep.
10. Alex Leatherwood-
OLT, Alabama, 6-6, 312, #70- He has very long arms, and plays at
arm’s length very well. He was the best Left Tackle in the SEC. He faced
the best and fastest rushers in the SEC and he only gave up 2 Sacks and 3
hurries last season!

14. DeVonta Smith-
WR, Alabama, 6-1, 175, #6- He reminds me of Antonio Brown. Only
hopefully without the chaos. He has become a star. On a team with some
elite WRs, he has taken over as maybe the best. He has shown a knack for
catching TDs in the past two weeks: Ole Miss and A&M. Phenomenal
speed in pattern.

28. Jaylen Waddle-
WR Alabama, 5-10, 182, #17-
Like Donta
Smith, when he got on the field he dominated. He is a smaller, probably a
Slot WR, in the NFL. When he gets the ball in his hands
he is dynamic. He is field fast in the SEC. He could get lost in the
shuffle in the Draft next year. But he can play. Read More: Free On Amazon Prime. .
34. *Najee Harris-
6-2, 230, RB, Alabama, #22- He has
exploded this season with speed, burst, and the best power RB we’ve seen
since Derrick Henry, who is tearing up the NFL. Harris is just as
talented as Henry. He’s smaller and a little shiftier and faster. Great
hands and receiver out of the backfield. Terrific in pass pro.
He is a serious 1st Round talent who still has a
lot of tread on his tires, because of the Alabama system of having three
or four top RB recruits on the team every season. I’d take him in the
1st, but he is most likely to drift into the 2nd Round because of
position. I like him more than Josh Jacobs. But,
Harris will end up with a lot more career carries at Alabama than Jacobs.

48. Deonte Brown-
ORG, Alabama, Rs-Sr, 6-4, 350, #65- Plays with good knee bend. Quick
and balanced in pass pro. When he plays with his hands up you can’t beat
him in pass pro. Good zone blocker. Smooth moving laterally with one arm
holding off the DT. Teams refuse to rush his lane, which is saying
something when you look at their O-line last season.
#4
Brian Robison-
6-1, 228, RB,- Still has a
lot of tread on his tires. He is an excellent runner, who could be better
in the NFL. He has back up two great RBs, and has barely carried the
ball.
Senior (2020): The Crimson Tide’s power back who also has the ability
to catch passes out of the backfield ... pairs with Najee Harris to give
Alabama one of the top running back duos in the country. Missouri:
Carried four times for 18 yards with a long gain of 19 ... added one
catch for no gain against the Tigers. Texas A&M: Led all Tide backs
with 60 yards rushing on his 10 carries ... converted four first downs
with a long gain of 16..
#69
Landon Dickerson-
6-6, 325, OC, Rs-Sr-
Senior
(2020): In his second year as the Crimson Tide’s starting
center after arriving in Tuscaloosa last year as a graduate transfer from
Florida State … a veteran of 15 starts at Alabama, including 11 at center
… makes all of the calls for a Crimson Tide offensive line that blocks
for the nation’s No. 3 scoring offense (45.0 ppg),
No. 3 pass efficiency offense (208.12) and No. 5 passing offense (369.0).
#86 Carl Tucker-
6-2, 248, TE Gr-Tr- Terrific blocker on the edge sealing the
DE outside.
Senior
(2020): Veteran tight end who graduated from North Carolina
before joining the Crimson Tide this fall ... played in 38 games for the
Tar Heels ... selected to the John Mackey Award Watch List prior to the
2020 season. Missouri: Got the start in his first game at Alabama ...
helped provide blocks for the Tide ground game. Texas A&M: Started
for a second consecutive week but did not record any stats.
#87 Forristall Miller-
6-5, 244, TE, - Great jump going up and snagging the pass
high and outside.
Senior
(2020): Veteran leader in his position group and in the
locker room ... played in 44 career games with 13 starts to his name ...
named to the Wuerffel Trophy Watch List.
Missouri: Made the start at tight end ... hauled in one pass for a
career-long 34-yard gain. Texas A&M: Registered two catches for 23
yards against the Aggies.

Ohio State Offense:
#1 Justin Fields- 6-3, 228, QB, Ohio State,
Rs-Jr-Tr- Screw the Ratings! If Lawrence and Fields declare for
the Draft? Fields will be the second player taken in 2021 Draft. You can
rate him as the 50th best player if you want, but if he declares he is
only going 2nd to Lawrence. Rare competitor. Finds a way to win. Shows
well in the clutch. Excellent size. Looks the part. Great scrambler with
great run vision, speed and power.

#2 Chris Olave- 6-1, 188. Wr, JR, 45.- Olave might be my favorite WR in this Draft. Big, strong and
fast. He became their Number One WR. Plays on the QB’s right. Nice
release off the LOS. Reaches out and catches the ball away from his body.
Looked like the Number One WR last season, even though they had three WRs
drafted from that team.

#8 Trey Sermon-
RB, Gr-Tr, 77.- Transferred to Ohio State.
He produced at Oklahoma for three seasons. Not as many carries as I
thought. He still has tread on the tires. He is excellent in blitz
pickup. He can be on the field on
3rd downs. Good blocker. Nice fake on play action and does a great job
stepping in front of the blitzer to protect his QB.

#33
Master Teague- RB, Rs-Soph-
Terrific cutback runner. He got better and better as the season wore on.
Terrific closer. When they need to clock it, they give him the ball.
Short squat runner who is fast to the outside.
#75
Thayer Munford- OLT, SR- He
looked good in 2018, but couldn’t stay healthy. He stayed healthy in
2019. He is a guy who some think is an OLG. He will go lower than he
should because of concerns about injuries.
Switches on
Stunts easily. He has to turn and bail a little too much. But he can push
the DE to the ground behind the QB with his hands. He can slide outside
and cut off the DE nicely wide of the QB. Then turn and bail. They seem
to want him to cut off the DE with his hands in pass pro.

#71
*Josh Myers- OC, Rs-Jr, 76.- He is a solid Day Twi Center. Plays in a
shotgun Offense. Nice quick and accurate snaps. Doubles to each side with
a pop. He will lower his head to headbutt on the double. Good hands for
grabbing and shoving blockers.

#89 Luke
Farrell- TE, Rs-Sr- Great job
blocking outside in run game. He has shown that he has a role as a
blocker. And when they throw it to him, he catches it. Developmental guy,
who can put on the field early because he can block in pass pro as well.
#88
*Jeremy Ruckert- TE, Jr- Great job sealing the Edge. Similar to Farrell in
that both are good blockers who can help a team blocking early as they
learn the passing game. Both are late Day Three guys.
#81 Jake
Hausmann- TE, Rs-Sr-
#87 *Ellijah Gardiner- Wr, Rs-Jr-
Ohio State Defense:
#24
Shaun Wade- 6-1, 195, CB- Explosive movement skills.
Great explosion crossing the field. Then sudden bursting backwards. He
has some serious speed pedaling backwards like a FS. He will play in the
Slot and cover the tight end sometimes. Good feel for when to grab the
Slot WR and shut him down. Played in the slot a lot last season. He will
be outside more in 2020.

#0 Jonathon Cooper- DE, Rs-Sr- He can beat the OLT with an outside in move.
Lightening quick. Left DE. Lines up outside the ORT. Nice stunter to pull
the ORT and TE inside and let the DT stunt outside of him and force the
RB to block him.
#11
*Tyreke Smith- DE, Jr- He has
gotten better and better. He has become a fierce pass rush in the second
half od the season. I am excited to see when he
does tonight against Clemson.
#72 *Tommy Togiai- DT, Jr- Good inside run defender. Big and strong. Moves well
through contact. Great run defender. He will carve out a role in the NFL.
