<p class="text-gray-700">Winter offers from Troy and Baylor have Toodle sticking out in a fairly thin 2028 QB class in Alabama. Toodle doubles as a basketball athlete and is a true dual threat. He is built well into this frame, well-equipped to get tough yards. He is an explosive enough athlete to generate explosives with his legs and keep plays alive. He has a quick, tight delivery, getting the ball out quickly. His stock is rising and he should continue to stand out in the 2028 class. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">It's been a big offseason for Salster, who is starting to settle into a TE projection full-time. He is a versatile player who has played all over the field, but his size and traits make him an obvious TE projection. After seeing him in person, this kid looks and moves better than I originally expected. He is tall, but cut and light on his feet. He has no problem occupying space, and has the size to box out and offer a large catch radius for QBs. Big fan of this kid and his upside. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Willis has emerged over the last few months as one of the premier 2027 OL prospects out of Alabama. Willis is a prototype tackle prospect. He is tall, long, lean, and athletic enough to handle the responsibilities of a tackle at the FBS level. He battles hard in the run game as well. He is quick out of his stance, plays with good hand placement in his punch, and fires his feet to displace defenders. He is only going to improve as he adds mass and better play strength to hold the point. Big fan of this kid. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">There's a lot to like about Milledge before you even get to the tape. He checks ideal size boxes, looks the part, and has a wrestling background. Some of the intrigue is set here naturally. Milledge pursues the ball well when he comes off blockers. I like how he uses his length at the point of attack, and he brings his feet as well to help create push. He is still raw, so his best ball is ahead of him. Several FBS and P4 offers are under his belt after this offseason. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Crenshaw is another talented Prattville product who firmly broke onto the FBS and P4 recruiting scene this offseason. Crenshaw is a true speed rusher who is a lot to handle on every snap. Quick off the line, immediately sends blockers into recover mode, and has the pursuit skills to get after the football. He is a good tackler, and I would say there's a chance that he could slide back and play off the ball at the next level, given his size and speed. Regardless, he is a lot to handle, and it's all due to his explosiveness and speed.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Griffin is a breakout player this winter out of Opelika, and adds to a list of talented Opelika prospects receiving some recruiting attention in the 2027 class. There's a lot of tread left on the tires here physically, as he comes in at a thin 160 with a lot of space to get bigger. Really well-rounded, physical player. He can carry routes downfield, fire downhill after the ball, and strike. He does a lot of things really well, and he does it on a frame with untapped potential. Definitely understand the intrigue here. </p>
