Alabama Football: Day 3 NFL Draft could boost Tide numbers

So far the 2018 NFL Draft has been a bang and a whimper for Alabama football. Former Crimson Tide players dominated the first-round with four selections. The Tide was blanked in the second-round. It almost happened again in the third round, with Ronnie Harrison finally picked with the No. 93 pick.

After round one there was considerable optimism Alabama football would set a new one-year draft record. The current Crimson Tide record was set in 2017 with 10 players selected. The Tide could still break that record with an active third day.

Three players expected to be drafted

Da’Shawn Hand, Anthony Averett and Tony Brown should be drafted in the fourth or fifth round.
