Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	1	Scout Rank	3
Rivals Rank	5 Star	24/7 Rank	2
Composite	2	Star Rating	5 Star
Charles Baldwin is considered one of the top Junior College recruits in the nation and is an early enrollee. He has excellent raw physical tools to be a top college football offensive lineman. Getting in to Tuscaloosa early, Baldwin has a chance to step in right away and take over the right tackle job. This is one of the biggest gets of Alabama’s class.

OT	Folsom, CA	6′ 5″	280
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	25	Scout Rank	58
Rivals Rank	24	24/7 Rank	17
Composite	31	Star Rating	5 Star
Jonah Williams is also a highly rated early enrollee that will have the benefit of spring football. He has very good athleticism and size for a tackle. Williams will have to continue to develop technically, but plays with a solid base in pass and run protection. He will try to compete for a starting role, however I think he will most likely be groomed for a tackle position when Cam Robinson leaves.

B.J. Emmons

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
RB	Morganton, NC	5′ 11″	220
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	33	Scout Rank	40
Rivals Rank	33	24/7 Rank	35
Composite	35	Star Rating	4 Star
Ranked by many as the top running back in the nation, Bama adds quality depth for next season with B.J. Emmons. Emmons has the ability to contribute right away with his college ready size. He will still have to improve as a receiving back, but has the speed and strength to run between the tackles. Next year the Tide should roll with the three young running backs of Scarbrough, Harris and Emmons.

Kendall Jones

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
DT	Killeen, TX	6′ 5″	361
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	133	Scout Rank	14
Rivals Rank	23 DT	24/7 Rank	93
Composite	80	Star Rating	4 Star
Kendall “The Hulk” Jones is a massive human being that could develop into a great defensive tackle. Even though he is big, he has surprisingly good movement skills. He has a really good power rush and he is stout in the run game as well. Look for him to be a clog in the middle for future Alabama defenses.

Shyheim Carter

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
CB	Kentwood, LA	5′ 10″	181

CB	Madison, MS	5′ 11″	174
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	36	Scout Rank	196
Rivals Rank	51	24/7 Rank	62
Composite	86	Star Rating	4 Star
Nigel Knott is Alabama’s first cornerback commit and a great addition. Knott has great speed and ball hawk ability to contribute to the Tide. He does only have a slight build on him now where he will have to put on weight before seeing the field. Knott could have a specialized role next year and down the road he should develop into a starting cornerback.

Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	150	Scout Rank	110
Rivals Rank	88	24/7 Rank	83
Composite	108	Star Rating	4 Star
After a few weeks of wavering on his commitment to Alabama and mulling a flip to Mississippi State, Davis announced he is sticking with the Crimson Tide. Davis has phenomenal size and strength as he gives Alabama depth along the defensive line. He will need to develop better as a pass rusher, but is stout against the run as he uses his strength to anchor. Davis has a chance to play early, but my the end of his career he should be a regular along the defensive line.

Trevon Diggs

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
WR	Rockville, MD	6′ 2″	182
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	125	Scout Rank	115
Rivals Rank	135	24/7 Rank	113
Composite	122	Star Rating	4 Star
Trevon Diggs is a top rated wide receiver that will help the Tide’s depth. He is the brother of Stefon Diggs who is a wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings. Diggs is also versatile enough to play corner or safety. He has excellent length and speed to be a special defensive back as well. Diggs should develop into a nice wide receiving threat down the road or a very good defensive back.

Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	126	Scout Rank	102
Rivals Rank	28 OG	24/7 Rank	176
Composite	135	Star Rating	4 Star
Deonte Brown is a massive Offensive Guard that carries his weight well. He could develop into a nice interior offensive lineman for the Tide down the line after Alphonse Taylor graduates.

14.

Jalen Hurts

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
QB	Channelview, TX	6′ 2″	208
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	13 QB	Scout Rank	154
Rivals Rank	231	24/7 Rank	177
Composite	187	Star Rating	4 Star
Hurts is a talented dual-threat quarterback for this class who could develop into a starter late in his career. He has a bit of development to do coming from a simple high school offense. However, he shows good arm stength and build to eventually become a good quarterback. Hurts is also an early enrollee.

15.

Chris Owens

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
OG	Arlington, TX	6′ 3″	312
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	76	Scout Rank	170
Rivals Rank	25 OG	24/7 Rank	178
Composite	141	Star Rating	4 Star
Chris Owens is another nationally ranked offensive guard that is very mobile. He has a great combination of power and athletic ability where he will be able to compete for playing time down the road.

16.

Quinnen Williams

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
DE	Birmingham, AL	6′ 4″	260
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	236	Scout Rank	198
Rivals Rank	106	24/7 Rank	159
Composite	175	Star Rating	4 Star
Quinnen Williams fits the Alabama system perfectly as a tweener between being a defensive end and defensive tackle. He’s not much of a pass rusher, but he wins with strength. Look for him to be a defensive end in Alabama’s 3-4 defense.

17.

Scott Lashley

POSITION	HOMETOWN	HEIGHT	WEIGHT
OT	West Point, MS	6′ 7″	295
RECRUITING RANKINGS
ESPN RANK	140	SCOUT RANK	215
RIVALS RANK	27 OT	24/7 RANK	192
COMPOSITE	212	STAR RATING	4 STAR
Alabama gains a much needed offensive tackle for depth. Lashley has a high ceiling and has the ability to be developed into the next starting tackle. He has a big body that will continue to develop and raw pass protection ability. It was a huge win for Alabama, getting another recruit from the state of Mississippi.

18.

Aaron Robinson

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
CB	Deerfield Beach, FL	6′ 1″	175
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	294	Scout Rank	51 CB
Rivals Rank	N/A	24/7 Rank	41 CB
Composite	37 CB	Star Rating	3 Star
Aaron Robinson is a long cornerback who will need to gain weight in the weight room. He can play both wide receiver and cornerback as he is a very good athlete at this stage. It will be a few years down the road before he sees the football field, but look for him to add solid depth at both positions.

19.

Miller Forristall

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
TE	Cartersville, GA	6′ 6″	210
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	27 TE	Scout Rank	11 TE
Rivals Rank	21 TE	24/7 Rank	17 TE
Composite	19 TE	Star Rating	3 Star
Forristall will have to fill out more before he will be able to make an impact. He is a very tall, skinny tight end that demonstrates great ball skills. Forristall also demostrates above average speed. With his height, he should be able to put on solid weight with the program. He will get an early start as he is an early enrollee.

Irvin Smith

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
TE	New Orleans, LA	6′ 4″	230

Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	108 WR	Scout Rank	108 WR
Rivals Rank	57 WR	24/7 Rank	80 WR
Composite	88 WR	Star Rating	3 Star
Simmons is a taller wide receiver that has just average speed. He does have great hands and is a very good route runner. Simmons will have an opportunity to build up strength early as he is an early enrollee.

22.

Shawn Jennings

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
S	Dadeville, AL	6′ 1″	215
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	43 S	Scout Rank	48 S
Rivals Rank	40 S	24/7 Rank	38 ATH
Composite	44 S	Star Rating	3 Star
Shawn Jennings is an early enrollee that has good size and decent speed. Jennings is a very good tackler, but will have to continue to develop before he sees the field. He has the versatility to play both free and strong safety.

23.

Joshua Jacobs

Position	Hometown	Height	Weight
RB	Tulsa, OK	5′ 10″	200
Recruiting Rankings
ESPN Rank	36 RB	Scout Rank	32 RB
Rivals Rank	N/A	24/7 Rank	11 RB
Composite	26 RB	Star Rating	3 Star
Ignore the 3 star rating, Jacobs is a very good running back that can help with the depth. He was a late bloomer in recruiting and could end up being a great steal for Alabama. Jacobs runs with a great base and makes very quick cuts. He could be the only running back based on if B.J. Emmons can become eligible.

24.

Jamar King*

POSITION	HOMETOWN	HEIGHT	WEIGHT
DT	Ukiah, CA	6′ 5″	285
RECRUITING RANKINGS
ESPN RANK	N/A	SCOUT RANK	N/A
RIVALS RANK	N/A	24/7 RANK	56
COMPOSITE	N/A	STAR RATING	3 STAR
Jamar King is a JUCO transfer who was a late find in the recruitment world. Don’t let the 3 star rating fool you, he is a very talented defensive lineman with great size and power. King adds depth right away.

Thank God It's Saturday
