LB. Alabama. Mack Wilson. 25. player. 54.

Mack Wilson will try to follow in a long line of standout Alabama defensive players to head to the NFL and continue getting better. The 6-foot-2, 239-pound linebacker was a starter each of the past two seasons, including putting together a 65-tackle season this past year.

Wilson saw action in eight games as a freshman, making eight total tackles. He had a breakout year in 2017 with four interceptions, including one returned for a touchdown, with 40 tackles. His success grew this past year, helping the Crimson Tide to another SEC title and the College Football Playoff.

Philadelphia battled several injuries to finish 9-7 and reach the playoffs for another season. They won the Super Bowl last year but had trouble defending the pass. Adding Wilson would give them a player to generate a pass rush and defend across the middle of the field.
