OT: Cam Robinson (Alabama)

The 6’6″, 327-pound junior left tackle was a freshman All-American selection two years ago and was picked for the All-SEC first team last year as Alabama won the national championship. Playing with a young quarterback who is still developing has hurt Alabama’s offensive line stats a bit this year, yet the Tide keep rolling on toward what is likely to be a third straight College Football Playoff appearance. Robinson has been a big part of that success.

Over the offseason the veteran tackle was looking at felony controlled substance and illegal firearm charges. But the case was thrown out due to insufficient evidence and Robinson never missed any playing time this season. Projected at multiple positions at the NFL level, Robinson is a strong run blocker for a team that loves to run both inside and outside the tackles. As the leader of a national contender that ranks ninth nationally in rushing yards per game, Robinson will take one of the All-American tackle spots.
