Players & projections ·
Xavier Griffin — 6-3, 200, linebacker out of Gainesville in Gainesville, GA — is Alabama's headline linebacker in the 2026 class, the No. 17 recruit nationally. The honest constraint up front: college production data covers offense skill only, so we can't grade a linebacker the way we grade a quarterback. What we CAN measure is the outcome that matters most — the NFL draft, which we have for every position.
