Alabama vs. LSU: Top 2021 NFL Draft prospects to watch
Mac Jones, QB, Alabama
Alabama quarterback Mac Jones has taken a major step forward this season, establishing himself as an interesting quarterback prospect in the 2021 NFL Draft class. There is a clear top four quarterbacks in this class, with all four being possible, if not likely, top-10 picks. Jones is undoubtedly in the mix to be the next quarterback off of the board.
Jones is not just a game manager. He has pushed the ball down the field well this season and has more arm talent than many of us thought. This is another opportunity for Jones to establish himself as a first-round quarterback prospect.
Christian Barmore, IDL, Alabama
We were all excited to see Christian Barmore take on a larger role this season. He has obvious upside as an interior rusher but has not been as impressive as many of us expected him to be. Barmore has a great combination of quickness and power on the inside, giving him a ton of upside as a one-gap penetrator. Could this be the game where Barmore dominates and takes his 2021 NLF Draft stock to the next level?
Landon Dickerson, IOL, Alabama
Landon Dickerson has been absolutely dominant from the center position for Alabama this season. He is such a fun prospect to watch as he fires off of the ball quickly and manhandles opposing defenders on a consistent basis.

Dickerson seems to be rising up draft boards and could end up being a first-round pick before it is all said and done. He is a power-based player who beats up defenders on the inside and also has some mobility in his game. Keep an eye on the man in the middle of the Alabama offensive line in this one, I promise that you will come away impressed.
