Alabama center prospect Ryan Kelly (No. 70): Cedric Mason- Touchdown Alabama Magazine

Ryan Kelly was a staple on Alabama’s offensive line for three consecutive seasons.

The 2015 Remington Award winner, Jacobs Blocking Trophy winner and SEC Scholar Athlete blocked for 199.9 rushing yards a game last season. He produced the conference’s first 2,000-yard rusher in running back Derrick Henry.

Kelly opened holes for Henry’s 2,219 yards and 28 touchdowns, en route to securing a Heisman Trophy.

He took just as much pride in pass blocking, not allowing a sack during the 2014 and 2015 seasons.
