Alabama Football: Top 30 NFL Draft prospects of the Nick Saban Era
By Dakota Cox
Alabama football’s top 30 NFL Draft prospects: 15-13
15. Jonathan Allen, Defensive End
Jonathan Allen was such a great defensive linemen for Alabama football. He had a few injury concerns before he got drafted, but Washington decided he was worth the risk. If the injuries were not there, Allen would be significantly higher on this list. He is now a part of one of the greatest young defensive lines in the NFL.
14. Dee Milliner, Cornerback
Dee Milliner didn’t pan out in the NFL, but he had high hopes. He was a lockdown corner with abilities with the ball in his hands. Unfortunately, his career died in New York with the Jets. He is not the only player to struggle to succeed in New York. There is another player higher on this list who was recently drafted by the Jets.
13. Rolando McClain, Linebacker
Rolando McClain was a hard-hitting player for Alabama’s early teams. This talent made him a top-ten selection in the NFL Draft. However, he did not pan out for the Crimson Tide. He is unfortunately one of the biggest busts in both Alabama football and Oakland Raiders history. McClain has tried multiple times to pick up his NFL career, but it never worked.
