Well that’s a wrap! Despite all of the hand-wringing, Alabama finished with 10 total players drafted, behind only Ohio State (11) for the most in college football. On top of that, the Tide was the only SEC school with multiple first round draft picks. If you missed any of them, here is the recap:

Round 1, pick 12 – OT Kadyn Proctor – Miami Dolphins

Round 1, pick 13 – QB Ty Simpson – L.A. Rams

Round 2, pick 47 – WR Germie Bernard – Pittsburgh Steelers

Round 4, pick 137 – DL LT Overton – Dallas Cowboys

Round 5, pick 146 – C Parker Brailsford – Cleveland Browns

Round 5, pick 149 – LB Justin Jefferson – Cleveland Browns

Round 5, pick 173 – TE Josh Cuevas – Baltimore Ravens

Round 6, pick 201 – CB Domani Jackson – Green Bay Packers

Round 7, pick 232 – DT Tim Keenan – L.A. Rams

Round 7, pick 245 – RB Jam Miller – New England Patriots

All in all, it was a big day three for Alabama after a slow day two.

With the draft over, the undrafted free agent frenzy begins (seriously, if you think the draft is crazy, some the stories I’ve heard from NFL GMs about what happens right after it trying to convince all of the UDFAs to go places are pure chaos). Thus far, here’s the Alabama players who went out for the draft and didn’t get drafted, but have signed on with NFL squads:

OL Jaeden Roberts – Philadelphia Eagles

LB Deontae Lawson – Philadelphia Eagles

LB Nikhai Hill-Green – L.A. Rams

OL Kam Dewberry – Atlanta Falcons

DB DaShawn Jones – New Orleans Saints

So far, OL Geno VanDeMark, punter Blake Doud, running back Dre Washington, and tight end Brody Dalton are still looking for teams. I think VanDeMark will likely find his way onto a team, but the other three probably will not.

It was also a decent day for some former Tide players. who transferred elsewhere in their careers:

• S – Caleb Downs (Ohio State) – 1st round, pick 11 – Dallas Cowboys

• WR- Kendrick Law (Kentucky) – 5th round, pick 168 – Detroit Lions

And that’s pretty much it for this year! Hopefully we will see many of these names popping up across the NFL for years to come. Roll Tide to all!

GREEN BAY (WLUK) — Needing to add depth to the cornerback position the Packers drafted South Carolina’s Brandon Cisse in the second round of the NFL Draft on Friday and Saturday they added another player to the position.

In the sixth round Green Bay selected Alabama cornerback Domani Jackson (201st overall).

Jackson (6-0 3/4, 194 pounds) played in all 15 games with 10 starts last season for the Crimson Tide, but was benched for ineffectiveness midway through season before regaining starting job in SEC title game. Last season, Jackson recorded 39 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss and one pass breakup.

Jackson, who was timed at 4.41 seconds in the 40-yard dash, started is career at USC and played in 18 games over two seasons before transferring to Alabama in 2024. In his first season with the Crimson Tide, Jackson started all 13 games with 52 tackles, two tackles for loss, two interceptions and seven pass breakups.

Jackson was the No. 2 cornerback in the 2022 recruiting class behind Travis Hunter, who was the second pick last year by the Browns.
