Byron Young is a disruptive, NFL-caliber interior force for Alabama
Byron Young stood out at Alabama as a powerful, high-motor defensive lineman who could win with leverage, quick hands, and steady backfield disruption; in the 2022 season, he started all 13 games and posted 48 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, and 4 sacks[2]. What makes him especially appealing is that he was more than a stat line: evaluators valued his consistency, toughness, and ability to hold up against the run while still collapsing the pocket, traits that helped him become a third-round NFL Draft pick in 2023[1][2].
