Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia is a 4-Star quarterback, but unlike his brother, he is more of a pro-style quarterback. He is very comfortable in the pocket. He keeps his feet moving at all times and throws the ball with a ton of confidence.
Alabama’s coaching staff already has a great connection with Taulia, which should make his transition to Alabama very smooth. Alabama’s 2019 recruiting class is off to a good start. It is safe to say the Tide are bouncing back.
Jahleel Billingsley
Billingsley has great size at 6-feet-4-inches and 218 pounds, who can make moves in open space. He has great knowledge of the game and knows how to bail out his quarterback when he gets in a bad predicament. Billingsley also has blocking experience as he can stalk block with the best of wide receivers as well as help create running lanes for running backs. This kid is very much a receiving tight end. He has the potential to turn into a threat in the passing game.
Demarcco Hellams
Hellams is ranked as No.136 in the ESPN 300. He is the No.4 safety in the nation.
Hellams is a scary defender that jumps at any opportunity to force a turnover. He is very athletic, which enables him to play both wideout and free safety. Nick Saban has been known to try players out in different positions, so don’t be surprised if he gets the chance to see some time on offense.
John Metchie
Alabama is getting an elite player in Metchie. He is dangerous in space and is one of the more aggressive wideouts in this class. He has experience in the secondary and knows how to make sure he is felt on the defensive side of the ball as well.
Shane Lee
Lee is a 4-Star recruit and is ranked No.77 in the ESPN 300. He is a product of St. Francis Academy In Baltimore, Maryland, the same high school as Alabama freshmen defensive end, Eyabi Anoma.
The Maryland-native stands at 6-feet and weighs 240 pounds. Make no mistakes about it, he makes great use of his size as he is a punishing tackler. He is also very athletic and has great footwork. He can move sideline to sideline and is pretty good in pass coverage.
Rashad Cheney
Cheney is a 4-Star recruit out of Georgia. He stands at 6-feet-2-inches and weighs 270 pounds. He dominates one on one battles and knows how to shed blockers with great efficiency, making it easy for him to make plays in the backfield. He knows how to be very disruptive and clog up holes.
Kevin Harris
Harris has the ability to make an immediate impact. His jump off the line is phenomenal. It looks almost like he is popping off the ground because he is so explosive off the snap.
He is also a tenacious defender. He never gives up on a play and has enough speed to chase down ball carriers from behind.
This is also a guy that is in love with contact. He is going to hit somebody on the field before the whistle blows. On the rush, his outstanding. He hits the quarterback with a ton of force and makes his presence felt.
Antonio Alfono DE
Alfono is the No.1 player in the state of New Jersey. He is a 4-star recruit and is ranked as No. 100 in the ESPN 300.
He is an efficient tackler and has experience playing on the offensive line as well. This guy is most definitely a hand full at 6-feet-4-inches and 285 pounds. He has the ability to set the edge and is very technically sound. The most impressive thing about him is the way that he can recognize where a play is going early and attack. He rarely judges a play wrong and outruns a potential tackle. Alabama wants to add some depth to their defensive front and Alfono is a huge addition.
Byron Young
Young surprised everyone when he committed to Alabama on Independence day at midnight but it definitely was a good surprised.
At 6-feet-4-inches and 279 pounds, Young is on the hunt for the ball carriers at all times and nothing is going to stop him. He makes it his mission to get through blockers and make plays on the ball carriers. He gives the Tide yet another great defensive linemen commit in this class.
Justin Eboigbe
Eboigbe is a lengthy defensive end, that use his long frame to extend and make tackles on fleeing ball carriers. He also doesn’t mind delivering the hard hits and making runners remember him. Eboigbe and the other defensive linemen in this class will not all be called upon to produce early, which gives many of them time to develop and adjust to the college, and most importantly, SEC style of football.
