Not our strongest unit, but I think they'll be fine. Really the only weak link is the CB spot opposite Belue, but I see someone cementing their spot there in the next game or two. The safeties are probably our most athletic since Saban got here.

Belue, Vinnie, Collins, and HCD have all been good. Haven't paid enough attention to Jarrick or Geno to say if they're quality.

We haven't seen enough of him to evaluate him in any meaningful way, but Eddie Jackson looked good last game, and if Collins hasn't gotten in his way would have had a pick.

I wonder if we are having this discussion if Belue doesn't get hurt and Geno Smith doesn't get that DUI.

I believe I saw one go right by his head against VT. The WR may or may not have caught it, but he still had no idea where it was.

The above may be the worst post in the history of Bama forums - and I'm proud that my first post here was to let you know that.

Glad to know, pville, that you are the type of Bama fan that thinks that if you're not all-american, you're not a quality player - perfection or you're not worth a scholarship. Got it. I left woolyal to get away from that crap. Oh well.

BTW, not only is Sunseri solid, he's one of the best players on our team.

pville is a fricking engineer...likes hockey over baseball..and probably likes soccer over many other real sports. Does this explain things to the rest of you.

I'm just assuming you don't know how to quote here, because technically you're referring yo my post, and the rest of your post makes it seem like we're on the same page here. Roll Tide.

HCD and Collins are probably the only two current contributors who will be playing on Sundays in a few years, but that doesn't mean they rest of them aren't any good. A guy can be a solid contributor without being 1st team All SEC.

my guess is the tallest and another strong guess would be the one that started last week.

I saw pics of Smith playing, that's why I was wondering who yall thought would be starting. I didn't know Jackson started, never got time to watch the replay been so busy with work this week.
