First up on the list, top rated dual-threat quarterback Bryce Young.

Bryce Young, Quarterback

Hometown: Santa Ana (Cali.)

Rivals ranking: 5-star / No. 3 overall / No. 1 DT-QB

Commitment date: Sept. 22, 2019

Signing date: Dec. 18, 2019

Where does he fit in? Young is one of the most talented quarterback prospects that has ever signed with Alabama coming out of high school. The 5-foot-11, 183-pound passer will need to wait and see what happens with Tua Tagovailoa, but he should be heavily involved in the competition should Tua decide to leave for the NFL draft.
