The NFL Draft will take place this week with the first round on Thursday followed by the second and third rounds on Friday and the fourth through seventh rounds on Saturday.

Last year, Alabama set a record with 12 players selected. This year, there will be no shortage of former Crimson Tide players going off the board. With the draft quickly approaching, here’s a look at where Alabama players are landing in 10 recent mock drafts.

Josh Jacobs came up big late in the season, rushing for 228 yards and two touchdowns on just 34 players over Alabama's final three games. Jacobs is also a threat through the air and pulled in 20 receptions for 247 yards and three touchdowns last season.

Irv Smith Jr. was one of Tua Tagovailoa's favorite targets last season, recording 44 receptions for 710 yards and seven touchdowns. The 6-foot-2, 242-pound tight end is projected to go in the late first round or early second round.

Damien Harris led Alabama with 876 yards and nine rushing touchdowns on 150 carries. The versatile running back also caught 22 passes for 204 yards. Harris is viewed by most as the No. 2 back in this year's class and should come off the board on Day 2.

Mel Kiper: No. 54 overall (Round 2), Houston Texans

Todd McShay: No. 87 overall (Round 3), Chicago Bears

Mack Wilson was Alabama's signal caller on defense last year. The 6-foot-1, 240-pound linebacker led the team with six combined interceptions over the past two seasons.

Kiper/McShay: No. 66 overall (Round 3), Pittsburgh Steelers

Mel Kiper: No. 52 overall (Round 2), Pittsburgh Steelers

Todd McShay: No. 95 overall (Round 4), New York Giants

Deionte Thompson finished second on the team last season with 78 tackles. The 6-foot-1, 195-pound safety also held signal-calling duties in the secondary and finished the year with two interceptions.

Mel Kiper: No. 38 overall (Round 2), Jacksonville Jaguars

Todd McShay: 57 overall (Round 3), Philadelphia Eagles

Christian Miller was one of Alabama's most dangerous pass-rushing threats last season, finishing with 8.5 sacks and 11.5 tackles for a loss over 14 games. A hamstring injury kept the outside linebacker out of the national championship game. However, Miller should be ready to go come preseason workouts.

Walter Sports: No. 78 overall (Round 3), Miami Dolphins

Saivion Smith led Alabama with three interceptions, including one which he returned 38 yards for a touchdown against Arkansas State. The 6-foot-1, 199-pound defensive back surprised many by declaring early for the draft but has the size and athleticism needed to play at the next level.

Walter Sports: No. 80 overall (Round 3), Cleveland Browns

Isiah Buggs led Alabama with 9.5 sacks while also tallying 13.5 tackles for a loss. After playing primarily as a defensive end for the Crimson Tide, the 6-foot-3, 306-pound lineman might need to move inside at the next level.

Walter Sports: No. 112 overall (Round 4), Buffalo Bills

After starting his first three seasons at guard, Ross Pierschbacher moved to center last season. The 6-foot-4, 307-pound offensive lineman was one of Alabama's biggest leaders and was named a permanent captain by his teammates.

Walter Sports: No. 156 overall (Round 5), Denver Broncos
