It has talent and experience returning up front, but is it too much of a stretch to highlight Alabama football having the best offensive line for this season?
Pro Football Focus, a website that dives into the analytics of college and pro football, did not feel that way. PFF highlighted the men up front for the Crimson Tide as the No. 1 group in college football. Alabama has an elite center in Parker Brailsford, a potential high first-rounder (Kadyn Proctor) at left tackle, and serviceable guards in Jaeden Roberts, Kam Dewberry, and Geno VanDeMark. Wilkin Formby has an opportunity to be a good right tackle, but he is battling Arkel Anugwon (transfer from Ball State) for the starting position. If it is able to get the right group of five on the field, Alabama could win the Joe Moore Award for most outstanding unit.

Chris Kapilovic, the Tide’s offensive line coach, has work to do, but he has the players.

Pro Football Focus believes in Alabama’s offensive front, yet we will see how they perform in run blocking and pass protection in the coming season.
