re: Saban 12 NFL draft picks -- Gus Malzahn 4 draft picks

Rounds 4 through 7 the NFL largely drafts guys from coaches they trust. Saban is one, Kirby is another, and a lot of big ten guys get picked up late because they are technically well coached. Scouts also tend to trust about 5 blue blood programs and give their borderline guys the benefit of the doubt. As an AU fan I ask myself this in regards to the draft...

Does Stephen Roberts, Tray Mathews, Jeff Holland, Austin Golson get drafted had they played at Bama? Ofcourse they do.

Does Deshawn Hand get drafted had he had same career at AU? Not a chance. Are Carl Lawson, Montravious Adams, and Carlton Davis 1st rounders had they played for Saban? I tend to think they would be.

Tough to admit but Gus has a horrible rep with NFL and its proof when you watch the draft.
