The 6-foot-3, 200-pound Griffin chose the Crimson Tide over finalists Florida State, Ohio State and Texas. He plays at Gainesville (Ga.) High School.
The composite also lists the five-star linebacker as the No. 27 overall prospect in the nation. He has made official visits at all four schools since May 30.
According to 247Sports, Griffin has made 97 tackles and 21 sacks and added three forced fumbles over the past two seasons.
