Alabama Football continues to churn out NFL talent, and this cycle is no different with a bevy of first rounders and a deep class beneath them for the 2019 NFL Draft.

Nick Saban has built Alabama football into an NFL factory. With high-end recruiting classes every year, the Crimson Tide is bound to send a lot of players to the next level. Along with getting top tier prospects to come to Tuscaloosa, Saban and his staff have long done an excellent job cultivating and developing that talent, turning five-stars into first round picks at a much higher rate than any other school.

The 2019 NFL Draft will be no different, with numerous former Alabama players littering the three-day draft process.

Two years in a row Alabama has produced four first-round picks and double-digit overall selections in the draft. This year, the Crimson Tide should at least see three former players selected on the first night, with as many as six potentially clawing their way into first round consideration.

The streak of double-digit overall draftees should continue as well, with 10 prospects all but guaranteed to hear their names called at some point during those three days. Two more prospects are fringe-late round guys who could be selected or could slip to undrafted free agency. There’s a few other Alabama players who are likely to go undrafted, but have the opportunity to make a roster as a UDFA.

Alabama saw a program-record  seven underclassmen declare their eligibility for this draft, and all seven should hear their names called, continuing a trend of Crimson Tide underclassmen being drafted at a higher rate than any other school.

Part of the fun of the pre-draft process is projecting where prospects are going to end up. It’s all projections, though; even the most informed NFL Draft prognosticators aren’t privy to the inner-workings of every draft room, and there’s always a ton of surprises.

We’ve given you countless first round projections for April’s draft, and now we’re going to take some team-by-team looks at where each prospect could call home next season.

Here’s a player-by-player look at Alabama’s draft prospects, and three potential scenarios for them during the draft.
