Where Alabama Players are Projected to Go in Tonight’s NFL Draft 1st Round
The 2018 NFL Draft will get underway Thursday night with primetime coverage of the first round and the University of Alabama should receive plenty of exposure on night one.
The Crimson Tide looks to have four more first round draft picks set to go off the board, which would make it 10 straight years that Nick Saban has produced at least one first round pick. During that time, Alabama has produced 22 first rounders and will join some elite company.
If mock drafts are correct, Alabama should add four more tonight which would match Saban's best in a single year. The program also did it in 2011, 2012, and 2017.
Where will the Tide stars land in this year's draft? We'll find out beginning at 7 p.m. tonight, but let's take a look at the last mock drafts to see where everyone is being projected.
