Neal is widely viewed as the top tackle prospect in the coming draft class and has a strong chance to go in the top five picks come April.
Despite being 6-7 and 360 pounds, Neal has rare mobility for being that size.
The Athletic’s Dane Brugler has Neal rated as his No. 1 offensive tackle.
Neal was a second-team All-American as a junior and started 37 games over three seasons for Alabama, moving from left guard to right tackle to left tackle from year to year.
