At last, Will Anderson is here. The NFL has been anticipating him, in all his gold-encrusted, run-clobbering, pass-rushing glory.

The 2023 Draft lacks its obvious blue-chip juggernauts and is riddled with doubts about whether talent will translate to the next level, but Anderson is, as everyone has long agreed, your long-term sure thing. A deserving first-round selection in the previous draft, he currently sits atop a depth-filled edge rusher table.

Here comes Nick Saban and Alabama’s head doorman, parading one of the most frequent entry-denied rates in college football as the understated game-wrecker with the heroic willingness to perform menial work run duties and the main character pass-rush glitz.

There were already rumors that the five-star prospect, Chase Young, who was in charge of a small 2020 edge class, was going to make his debut with the Crimson Tide. He was a firecracker who wasn’t quite the size of a pass rusher but had incredible burst in addition to his sharp instincts, size-defying power, and A-list potential.
