Former Alabama cornerback Eli Ricks played last season with both Bryce Young and Will Anderson, and was asked by a reporter at the NFL combine which player he would choose if he was holding the top draft pick. “I’m taking Eli Ricks, to be honest.'
Alabama has a strong chance next month to have its first player taken No. 1 overall in an NFL draft since 1948.
Former Alabama cornerback Eli Ricks played last season with both Young and Anderson, and was asked by a reporter Thursday at the NFL scouting combine which player he would take if he was an NFL general manager holding the top pick.At one point, Ricks’ opinion might not have been far off from reality.
Ricks was invited to the NFL combine despite his limited playing time the past two seasons -- he missed most of the 2021 season because of a shoulder injury -- and will not participate in drills this week because of a Grade II hamstring strain, he said Thursday. “Basically it was just whether or not I felt ready, and whether I could benefit an NFL team or not,” Ricks said Thursday. “And I feel like I could benefit an NFL team this year, so that’s really why I made a decision to declare.”Thursday marked the second time Ricks spoke to reporters after committing to transfer to Alabama in December 2021.
