Nice thanks!

Last years D was a result of poor leadership. Hopefully that changes this year.

That is a LOT of kool aid.. I'm trying to reserve judgement

Are these statements made privately by coaches or the opinion of the site writers?

Same here. It seems like I've been thinking the defense will get better every year only to see the same shitshow.

Usually they're just made up.
Saying that Sean White is the most accurate QB Gus has coached and that Muschamp says the defense had effort issues last year isn't going out on much of a limb.

They get a lot from lowly staffers too in passing. Problem with that is the staffers are telling them the "truth" but problem is their opinion is worthless

Excellent. Thanks for my morning fap material.

Scouts take as gospel the things they hear in the Bama locker room, I guess.

This is a good start to why Reese wasn't drafted
The attitude/personality stuff is crap. Guys like Incognito were swarmed by teams after the whole Dolphins fiasco. Center is more of a leadership position than gaurd, but you guys get the idea.
If you're 290lbs, 6'3", and you have small hands and short arms at Center, you are up against a lot. There are also questions about scheme fits. All this said, I think he's got a great shot at sticking in the NFL as a solid starter or backup. But that's a lot of barriers to being drafted.

Wonder if Reese can do long snapping? You can play in the NFL forever if you are good at that. Its kind of an invisible position, especially for a Rimington Winner, but 10 years in the league is still getting PAID.

New England drafted a fricking long snapper. $200K per year to goof off and snap a football for 6 months.

I think he sticks at Center. He will just have to prove himself in order to stick. It's not the worst position to be in. The Steelers like him.
