The obvious:

RB: Bo Scarbrough
WR: Calvin Ridley
WR: Robert Foster
WR: ArDarius Stewart
TE: OJ Howard
LT: Cam Robinson
LG: Lester Cotton
C: Ross Pierschbacher
RG: Alphonse Taylor
RT: Jonah Williams

DE: Jonathan Allen
NT: Daron Payne

JLB: Tim Williams
MLB: Reuben Foster
SLB: Ryan Anderson

CB: Marlon Humphrey
CB: Minkah Fitzpatrick
SS: Eddie Jackson
FS: Ronnie Harrison

Spots up for grab:

QB: Blake Barnett
DE: Da'Shawn Hand
WLB: Rashaan Evans
CB 3: Kendall Sheffield
Money/6th DB: Tony Brown

Those are my picks

Tomlinson will play over Hand against run heavy teams.

I don't think RB is that obvious. It could easily be Harris Imo. Both will get their fair share regardless.

I agree, it doesn't really matter who is starter because they'll both play so much. In 2014 Henry was the backup to Yeldon, but out ran him.

Yep. Harris is still being overlooked by many. He's going to be a stud.

Whoever blocks best will probably start.

Do you guys think the new recruits are gonna make enough of an impact to secure a starting position anywhere on the depth chart?

In nickel and dime packages, I think Minkah moves to slot and Averett moves to the other corner...I think Sheffield comes in on dime packages. I was surprised Mo Smith transferred; from all that I've read, he would've been #1 in the slot. Also figure it'll be SDH opposite Foster in the middle when we're in base...I think Evans will see a lot of playing time in both the middle and outside, but may not start at either...he's likely to be our designated spy when we're playing against mobile QBs...

I think it's a coin toss at RB between Scarborough and Harris. I could also see Dieter in the slot. While I think it'll be Bateman at QB, it wouldn't surprise me if it turns out to be any of the other 3 either...

I'll buy into the Scarbrough hype once I see some evidence that it is warranted. He didn't do much in his garbage time action and he had as bad an A-Day as anyone not named Adam Griffith.

he was going up against first D and using our rebuilt OL. He will be our number 1 back and the other will be his back up.

Spring, Saban mentioned Hill had a medical issue (of course, he cannot talk about what it is because of privacy laws) See AL.COM - 2/16/16
2013 Recruiting Class "Saban says Hill is on medical leave last March" no longer listed on roster

For those who think Damien Harris or BJ Emmons will start.

The Alabama highlights are a little ways into the video but it has all of his big Alabama runs.

So you are trying to prove your point by posting a video of garbage time highlights?

OK.


I'm not saying that he won't start, I'm simply saying that I don't think it's a for sure thing or as obvious as you say.

We all know he is impressive physically, and he has talent, he just has a lot to prove.

I believe it has every single carry he's had at Bama, given that a lot of them are not what I'd call highlights (less than 5 yards).

I think he'll be the starter. I'm just not buying into all the hype until I actually see some production out of him. This might be the worst Bama's been at running back since 2006.
