SEC Media Days have come to a close and the long-awaited 2017 preseason All-SEC team has been announced and there are a lot of Alabama players.

The Alabama Crimson Tide had 16 selections across the three levels of preseason teams, six more than the next closest school, Florida, who had 10. At least two members were chosen from each SEC school.

In a conference that has long since boasted a rich tradition of NFL Draft selections, the first team reads like a draft board, highlighted by potential Heisman candidates Jalen Hurts, Derrius Guice and Christian Kirk.

One newcomer to the list to keep an eye on is Isaac Nauta. The Georgia tight end recently was seen doing some rather unusual practice for the season – on a jet ski – with his quarterback Jacob Eason.
