The 2022 NFL draft has finally arrived.
When it comes to producing NFL talent, especially in the first round, no one has done it since 2007 like Nick Saban and the Alabama Crimson Tide. Since his arrival in Tuscaloosa, the former Tide players have earned $1.7 billion in NFL contracts. That is quite the achievement.
In recent years, players such as Tua Tagovailoa, Devonta Smith, Jaylen Waddle, Amari Cooper, Julio Jones, and many more have heard their names called during the first round. Beyond the first day of the draft, many more former Crimson Tide football players have joined the NFL in the draft and through the undrafted free agency period.
With the NFL draft’s festivities set to kick off on Thursday in Nevada, we are breaking down where Alabama players are rated amongst the Draft Wire top 300.
