I am most excited about ArDarius Stewart. His progress from the beginning of 2015 to the end of 2015 was fantastic. He is big, fast, and learned how to catch footballs. Look out.

Nope, all the armchair QB coaches know more, from the 1 scrimmage they watched, than Coach saban and staff.

The newest back up is always the best and should start. You know he did play great in that controlled scrimmage. LOL, nobody get rustled. RTR!


I would get terribly bored just sitting back and saying "Saban knows best!", never having, or sharing, an opinion.

I love Bama and seeing them win, but I also love the game of football and I occasionally disagree with something the coaches are doing. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, and I enjoy seeing other opinions here as well.

I think the real debate should be who will be the quarterback if Bateman doesn't workout. Saban has pretty much already anointed Bateman the starter, so unless he has a total meltdown in the fall camp, expect him to be under center in Dallas. What happens after that, we will see.

We are all forgetting Derek Kief. He will contribute this fall.

In garbage time maybe. Ridley Foster Stewart Dieter and Sims are top 5 guys

Stewart is amazing. He's a ridiculous athlete who became a star WR. Tbh I know Ridley is the flashy player but I think of Stewart as our best guy out there.

Ridley has better hands than Stewart. Plus he is a bit faster as well.

I was excited about him but his 4.7 fourty time cooled that some. Maybe he will get some PT.

Maybe it's just how clutch he seemed last season, similar to Norwood.

Did you see the awesome catches he had last year? He had some drops early in the year, but got better. I see him as a slightly better WR then Christion Jones.

Stewart had that span of drops early in the season that was hard to miss, but he definitely started stepping up in the clutch.

The staff tried to force feed him so much early on to get production(he was leading the SEC in receptions at one point), and he just wasn't that type WR. He was formerly the victim of Coker's erratic deep ball too, they could never click in those first few games.

I think they have a better understanding of what he is and his role this time around...

Well said. Stewart will do well as the third guy this year. He won't be likely targeted deep much with Ridley and Foster on the field this year but I think he could still equal his production from last year assuming we throw it as much as I think we will.

i agree. Stewart is really shifty. He's got ability to break a big play from an underneath route. Really good burst too. Maybe the most dangerous guy on the team in the open field (Ridley,Harris,???).

Yeah, he could do some damage underneath the coverage. We desperately need our quarterback to be able to get the ball out and do it with accuracy. We should see records broke in the passing game.

He had a wide-open drop on a perfectly thrown ball in the championship game. Thankfully he made up for it with a great catch later.
