Latest ESPN mock draft has 4 Alabama players in first round

ESPN’s Todd McShay released his most recent 2021 mock draft and it features four members of Alabama’s 2020 team.

ESPN’s Senior Write and Draft Analyst, Todd McShay, released his most recent 2021 NFL mock draft for the first round.

The mock consists of players from various conferences and divisions, Alabama is tied with Ohio State for the most draftees in the first round with four.

In 2019, three Crimson Tide stars were drafted in the first round, and in 2020,  four were selected. So, McShay’s projection of four being drafted in 2021 follows the precedent.

Here’s where the Alabama products landed:

26. New England Patriots – Dylan Moses, LB

Moses returned to Alabama for his senior season after missing all of 2019 to a knee injury.

“Moses missed last season with a knee injury, but when he’s healthy, he is a complete player and game-changer,” writes McShay. “He brings athleticism, speed, physicality and leadership qualities.”

Next … a couple of wide receivers.
