Parker Brailsford is Alabama’s athletic, high-IQ center who wins with movement, technique, and leadership
In 2025, Brailsford was a 14-game starter and Alabama team captain who earned third-team All-SEC honors, and his profile still pops for athleticism, awareness, and scheme fit more than raw mauling power. PFF graded him as a stronger pass protector than run blocker, with a 77.2 pass-blocking grade and 60.6 run-blocking grade, and analysts describe him as at his best in space, climbing to the second level, and thriving in a zone-based system. He looks like a strong fit for teams that want a mobile, technically clean center with high football IQ and dependable leadership, not just size.
