Alabama NFL Draft Prospects Blindly Rank Candy

JC Latham, Chris Braswell, Dallas Turner, Kool-Aid McKinstry, Terrion Arnold participated in a viral trend on Thursday.

Trends have been very apparent in social media creativity over the past few years and an exciting active one revolves around blindly ranking subjects in a certain category.

For example, a person is asked to rank legendary Alabama athletes 1-through-5, but they only get to hear one Crimson Tide standout at a time and must designate them to one of the numbers before the next athlete is announced. They also cannot change the order at the end and are told the last athlete after four slots, which often means that they probably should've left a certain spot open for this legend for them to be satisfied with their list.

As they prepare for the 2024 NFL Draft, which will take place in Detroit, Mich. from Thursday, April 25 through Saturday, April 27, Alabama prospects offensive tackle JC Latham, edge rusher Dallas Turner, linebacker Chris Braswell and cornerbacks Terrion Arnold and Kool-Aid McKinstry blindly ranked candy on Thursday.

Snickers was the last sweet revealed and automatically placed in the open spot. Here are the results as well as how the Crimson Tide NFL Draft prospects reacted to the final candy revealed:
