LB - Alex Anzalone

Georgia
WR - Isaiah McKenzie

Kentucky
RB - Boom Williams

LSU
RB - Leonard Fournette
DT - Davon Godchaux

Missouri

Ole Miss

Tennessee

McKenzie is going pro?!? He needed another year in the weight room. I'm very skeptical that 5'8 - 175 won't get broken in half in the NFL, especially when they haven't necessarily dominated college football. Speedy Noil ended up being garbage and couldn't stay out of his own way. Ricky Seals-Jones, good lord, what a waste of size and speed. I thought that guy was going to be the next Calvin Johnson simply due to looks, but he just couldn't get it going. Kamara going pro is a surprise, but not a big one. He really could have done well for himself with another year I think, but I understand since Tennessee has no idea what it's future is.

I have this sneaky suspicion that Ardarius Stewart will be leaving. He had a terrific year all around (besides the suspension). With Ridley coming back I can't see him producing more. Plus he had a great year blocking & showed up at big times. He is extremely confident in himself... I could see him jumping.

No one is talking about Ross Piersbacher or Bradley Bozeman... But both would be draft-able. As the season has gone on they've played great football. Bozeman may actually be more valuable because he's proven he can play center and is plenty big enough to play guard. Ross P could probably play any position on the line but has been all guard at UA. If one was to go, my guess is Ross P.

And here's one last wildcard - Bo Scarbrough. If he doubles down on his Washington performance, he needs to go. Finally healthy and productive, no guarantee that will happen again. Especially considering there are 3 other studs on this roster and 2 more coming in. RB's only have so many carries in their career and his health has been an issue.... I'd say go while you can.

Piersbacher isn't draftable. He is a true sophomore if I'm not mistaken. Of the 4 you list, Stewart would be the most likely to go in my opinion. As for Bo, I would think NFL scouts would want to see he play more than 2-3 games at 100%.

It's not as common for OLine to go early... they tend to help their draft stock by staying the extra year and getting bigger/better. Cam would be the only one I would expect to leave and if he stayed it wouldn't shock me...

Ross Redshirted as a Freshman and started all the games last year as a Soph(redshirt Freshman). This is his JR year (redshirt Soph) 3 years after HS, Draft eligible.

Ross P is a RS soph - Ross Pierschbacher - 2016 Football Roster - ROLLTIDE.COM - University of Alabama Official Athletics Site

And I'm sure the scouts would love to see Bo play more games healthy... But him staying would not guarantee that. With another great game his stock would be high - Waiting for "higher" is questionable considering his history.

@Tidestalker I don't see Bradley leaving. Both parents have good job. So he really don't need the money. Traveling to all away game not been a problem. I think his dream is to play in the NFL. But what do I know!

Yes I agree it's a long shot. But I think he's become a pretty decent prospect! Not sure if it's at Center or Guard because 6'5 320 is huge for a center... But hes def more valuable if he can do both.
