  It was another banner year for Alabama in the NFL draft, but one former Crimson Tide star did not hear his name called by a pro team last weekend. Dylan Moses, a former 5-star recruit and a first-team All-SEC pick in 2020, went undrafted and later signed a free-agent contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Moses battled injuries during his Alabama career, including a knee ligament injury that forced him to miss all of 2019 and a torn meniscus that he played with throughout this past season. Speaking to reporters Thursday night in Mobile, Saban said Moses going undrafted was not only unexpected, but perhaps a little unfair. He added that Moses should have been credited for playing hurt the entire 2020 season, in which he helped Alabama win the national championship.

"It had nothing to do with what kind of football player he is," Saban said prior to his speaking engagement at a fundraiser for Team Focus, a youth mentoring organization founded by former college football coach and television broadcaster Mike Gottfried. "It was all based on medical grades by the teams, which, frankly, was a little surprising to me. My time in the league, when guys came back and played, that usually got (them) out of that '5' medical grade, which is 'undraftable.' It might have been a '4' medical grade, which means a guy does have an injury that could be a problem in the future, but he's come back and played with it, so we have to give him an opportunity. "I certainly think that's where Dylan Moses should have fallen for sure, and should have gotten an opportunity, because he played all season long for us. And I think that should be a good enough indicator that he can play in the NFL." - Birmingham News
