Seven Alabama players heard their names called from the NFL draft stage in Green Bay over the last three days, and a few others will be getting opportunities as undrafted free agents. But what about those guys that decided to transfer from Alabama over the past few seasons?
Defensive back Trey Amos was the only one to get drafted. Amos transferred to Ole Miss after Nick Saban announced his retirement, and he was selected in the second round by the Washington Commanders.
Notably, former Alabama center Seth McLaughlin (Ohio State) and wide receiver Isaiah Bond (Texas) did not get drafted. McLaughlin signed an UDFA deal with the Cincinbatti Bengals. Bond was invited to the combine and still has not signed with an NFL team as of late Saturday evening.
Wide receiver Traeshon Holden (Oregon) inked a deal with the Dallas Cowboys. Former offensive lineman Amari Kight (UCF) is getting an opportunity with the Seattle Seahawks as an UDFA.

April 27, 2011: A devastating tornado ripped through the heart of Tuscaloosa, killing 53 people including six university students. Among them were Loryn Brown, the well-known daughter of former Alabama football player Shannon Brown, and Ashley Harrison, the girlfriend of long-snapper Carson Tinker. He sustained a broken wrist, concussion and ankle injury, while she died almost immediately from a broken neck. Harrison was 22.
“He's driven. He works very hard. His teams are very disciplined. They're well-coached, and he wins at everything he touches. I just think when you see what he does, you just admire the way he handles his business, the way he runs his program. He's in charge. He's confident, and his teams play like that.” — Texas coach Mack Brown on Nick Saban
