The newest Roll Pod episode brings together three familiar voices from the Bama247 stable — Mike Rodak, Alex Scarborough and Brett Greenberg — to stage the annual Alabama football roster draft. The trio follows a set structure that forces each team to fill specific positional slots, turning what could be a simple list into a competitive exercise.
The Draft Format
Each squad must assemble a 12‑player lineup that includes a running back, two receiver/tight ends, two offensive linemen, two defensive linemen, two EDGE/linebackers, two defensive backs and a bonus player. The order of selection rotates, with Alex starting, followed by Mike and then Brett.
Opening Picks
Zabien Brown made history as the first overall selection, setting the tone for a draft that quickly moved to the second and third spots. Michael Carroll followed as the second pick, and Yhonzae Pierre rounded out the top three.
Devan Thompkins claimed the fourth overall slot, after which the draft shifted to individual team strategies. Lotzeir Brooks became Mike Rodak's second choice, while Bray Hubbard was the pick of Alex Scarborough.
Running Back Selections
When it came to filling the running back slot, the three hosts each turned to a different prospect. Alex Scarborough tabbed EJ Crowell, Mike Rodak selected Daniel Hill, and Brett Greenberg opted for Kevin Riley, each adding a distinct flavor to their respective rosters.
Beyond the headline picks, the episode offered a glimpse into the broader composition of each team, highlighting the depth of talent that the hosts believe will shape Alabama's future on the field.
