Alabama players drafted in 2025 NFL Draft
Here is a look at the Alabama players selected in the 2025 NFL Draft:
- Tyler Booker, G, Dallas Cowboys (No. 12)
Booker is a safe pick for the Cowboys who can play either right or left guard. He continued the streak of first-round picks for Alabama, which is now at 17 years.
- Jihaad Campbell, LB, Philadelphia Eagles (No. 31)
Campbell’s stock increased in the second half of the season for the Crimson Tide. He had 53 tackles and 2.5 sacks in Alabama’s last five games, including three games with double-digit stops. He should fit with the defending Super Bowl champions.
- Jalen Milroe, QB, Seattle Seahawks (No. 92)
Milroe will have a chance to develop behind Sam Darnold at Seattle. This is a good landing spot for the fourth quarterback selected in the 2025 NFL Draft. Milroe
- Malachi Moore, S, New York Jets (No. 130)
Moore was a five-year player at Alabama who compiled seven interceptions. He could fit in dime packages to start and work into a starting role with New York.
- Que Robinson, EDGE, Denver Broncos (No. 134)
Robinson adds edge-rushing support for the Broncos, and he will have to improve his pass-rush rate at the next level.
- Robbie Ouzts, TE, Seattle Seahawks (No. 175)
Ouzts was a fifth-round surprise. He fills the need of a blocking tight end for the Seahawks.
- Tim Smith, DT, Indianapolis Colts (No. 190)
Smith averaged 33 tackles and two sacks the last two seasons with the Crimson Tide.
