Team Armour: Dylan Moses (OLB) 

No matter how much roster turnover there is each season, Alabama's defense always seems to have one alpha dog who leads the linebacker unit and controls the nuances of the defense.

Dylan Moses could be the next alpha dog in head coach Nick Saban's defense in a few years. 

An outside linebacker who can cover, rush the passer, tackle and read the quarterback's eyes, Moses has all the mental tools at his disposal. It also doesn't hurt that he's one hell of an athlete. 

While he is an exceptional talent, Alabama does not typically play freshmen unless it's necessary, which is something that Moses understands from the get-go, as he chronicled in his Under Armor training camp entry to USA Today: 

"

As for next season, I'm looking to learn, because I know there will be a lot of things I need to learn when I get there. I need to get used to being a role player. I mean, I'm pretty sure they're expecting big things out of me once I get on campus, and I want to fulfill those expectations but at the same time just do my part.

"

Ranked as Scout.com's No. 1 linebacker and No. 6 overall player in this year's class, Moses has had to deal with a lot of hype surrounding him from a young age. He was even featured on the cover of ESPN The Magazine as a teenager. 

If that wasn't enough, he was also the first-ever freshman to receive an invitation to the Under Armour All-America Game when he was 15 years old, and he committed to LSU at the time.  

Team Armour: Alex Leatherwood (OT)

Alex Leatherwood is not just an imposing offensive lineman; he's also an athletic one. 

He's Scout.com's No. 3 offensive tackle and No. 18 overall player who stands at 6'6" and weighs 315 pounds. Another Alabama commit, Leatherwood seems destined to play at tackle due to his size and frame, but he does have the athletic ability to move across the offensive line if necessary.

Physical, athletic and big. Sounds like an Alabama offensive lineman, doesn't it?

Playing against some of the nation's best defensive linemen and linebackers at the Under Armour practices would usually be a challenge for a lot of these players who aren't used to playing against such high-level competition, but according to Rivals.com's national recruiting director, Mike Farrell, Leatherwood isn't having that much difficulty showcasing his sheer dominance over the competition. 

Leatherwood will soon be a feature on Saban's offensive line in the coming years, and if he continues to develop, he'll likely be a top pick in the NFL draft in the next few years.
