2. Dylan Moses, OLB

Dylan Moses, Parade Magazine’s national player of the year, is another big get on the recruiting trail for the Alabama Crimson Tide. He originally committed to the LSU Tigers but decommited in August 2015. This past October, he committed to the Crimson Tide to the surprise of many. Now, after enrolling early, he’ll look to push for early playing time on a vaunted defense.

Moses ranks 13th nationally, second at the outside linebacker position and third overall player in the state of Florida, according to 247Sports. He recorded 106 tackles (42 solo, 64 assisted), eight tackles for loss, five pass breakups and two sacks in his senior season at IMG Academy.

With plenty of upperclassmen experience at the linebacker position, Moses early enrollment shows his willingness to learn from those ahead of him. He has a nose for the football on defense and the ability to cover the pass. It will be interesting to see how the Crimson Tide coaching staff uses him in 2017.
