TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) - Alabama tailback Eddie Lacy, cornerback Dee Milliner and right tackle D.J. Fluker are entering the NFL draft.

Lacy and Milliner announced their plans to skip their senior seasons Friday at a news conference. Coach Nick Saban says Fluker couldn't be there but made the same decision.

Milliner is considered a potentially early first-round pick. He had two interceptions and 22 pass deflections.

Lacy was MVP of the national championship game after rushing for 140 yards and scoring two touchdowns.

The 6-foot-6, 335-pound Fluker started 35 games for the Tide and was a second-team Associated Press All-American.

Fluker and Lacy are regarded as likely early round selections.

There was never a word mentioned by ESPN during Monday's game about the decal on the Alabama Crimson Tide players helmet backs that read "26" with an eagle on it. This was added by the Alabama Athletic Department to pay tribute to the 26 children killed in the Conneticutt School masscre. Maybe ESPN didn't want to create a buzzkill yet they focused on AJ's girlfriend a little too much and never acknowledged a wonderful tribute by the Tide Team. I'll never understand the liberal lame stream media and what they do sometimes.
