Alabama football may have two defensive players selected in the first round of the NFL Draft.

Will Anderson is a concrete top-five pick, but Brian Branch has played his way into the first round.

Both are native Georgians who assisted the Crimson Tide to two Southeastern Conference Championships (2020 and 2021) and a College Football Playoff National Championship in 2020. Anderson and Branch shut down Kansas State’s run game in the second half, propelling Alabama to a 45-20 victory in the Allstate Sugar Bowl. The two had a lot of fun in the “Home Team” commercial presented by Wendy’s and Dr. Pepper. Anderson and Branch answered interesting questions about each other and played games.

The chemistry they had on camera is the same as what was shared on the field.

Both guys are looking to dominate the league.
