The Alabama Crimson Tide has extended its impressive streak, marking 17 years of having at least one player selected in the first round of the NFL Draft.

In a bit of an unexpected turn, Tyler Booker, a national security guard, was picked by the Dallas Cowboys as the 12th overall selection.

Booker was widely regarded as the top guard in the draft, though it’s not common for guards to be chosen this high—most mock drafts had them going much later, often in the mid-twenties.

This year, the Cowboys opted for players they believe will develop into outstanding professionals, despite the draft being perceived as lacking in high-caliber talent.

On the other hand, the Philadelphia Eagles, who are the defending Super Bowl champions and a major rival to the Cowboys, selected Alabama linebacker Jihad Campbell as their 31st pick.

Campbell is joining a formidable championship defense and will be alongside Alabama alumni like Jalen Hurts and Devonta Smith, along with several other standout SEC players now in Philadelphia.

While Jalen Milroe did not hear his name called in the first round, he still has a good chance of being picked in the second or third round later this evening.

This remarkable streak continues as the standards of college football keep sending talented stars to the professional ranks.
