Analysis: There were some similarities between Seth McLaughlin and former Alabama starting center Ryan Kelly when both prospects were coming out of high school. They were both a little lighter offensive line prospects who needed to add weight and strength early in their careers.

Like with Kelly, McLaughlin could be a player who could end up earning a starting job later in his career after spending a few seasons developing physically, but if he can do that, he could prove to be an effective option for the Crimson Tide.

Expect 2020 to be the start of that developmental process, but also don’t count McLaughlin out beyond that with Dickerson, Leatherwood and Brown all being seniors.
