All-SEC Team 2015: Alabama leads with 7 first-team selections
Heisman Trophy winner Derrick Henry is one of seven players from the Alabama Crimson named to the AP-All SEC first team.
Derrick Henry headlines the 2015 AP All-SEC team that named seven members from Alabama with the SEC Champion getting three on offense and four on defense.
Henry is joined by tackle Cam Robinson and Rimington winner Ryan Kelly on the first-team offense and it’s only right those two offensive linemen are recognized after paving the way for the Heisman winner and SEC record holder.
Joining that trio on the first-team is one-time Heisman favorite, Leonard Fournette, the potential first receiver taken in the 2016 NFL Draft, Ole Miss receiver Laquon Treadwell and the quarterback is Mississippi State senior Dak Prescott. First-team All-American Hunter Henry is the first-team tight end selection in what was another no-brainer.
