DE/DT: A'Shawn Robinson
NG: Brandon Ivory
DE: Jarran Reed OR Jon Allen

Reed started in the spring, but Allen was lights out and has elite pass rusher written all over him. Either way both (as well as a bevy of others) will play a LOT.

Next 4 up:
DJ Pettway, DE
Dalvin Tomlinson, DE
Da'Shawn Hand, DE
Darren Lake, NG

The front 7 as a whole is really deep too.

OLB: Denzel Devall, Xzavier Dickson, Ryan Anderson, Tim Williams, and Rashaan Evans will all likely see PT. Evans is too damn good not to find his way onto the field on third down. Another five star in Christian Miller plans to Redshirt.

I don't see reed starting over Allen. He's too big to play WSDE. I think they will plug him at NT for ivorys garbage arse. My starting 3 are Allen Reed Robinson. 2nd depth I have pettway ivory Tomlinson. Hand is whatever he wants to be lol

3rd string I'll go liner lake Kirven. I would put Williams in for Kirven but I see him as just a rabbit on 3rd downs

I'd love to see Reed start at Nose over Ivory, but I don't think it'll happen.

Saban puts the best group of athletes on the field. Look at OL. He moves people around until he finds the best 5. The best 3-4 DL are Robinson Allen Reed and hand. The first 3 will start IMO and hand will come in on 3rd down

The future at NT for Alabama is either Frazier or OJ Smith. I could see Frazier being a Robinson/dareus but I think he'd make a great chapman type. OJ smith needs a RS and a couple years of strength and conditioning. He's got more baby fat than Frazier and he isn't as big. Daron Payne will be the NT we have all been dreaming of

During the game, 50/50 between Ivory & Reed.(would be a dunno smiley here if it worked)
I've heard Hand as well for a Dareus replica.

I see hand as more of a Greg Hardy type DL than a dareus replica. Hopefully Hand isn't as crazy as Hardy but the size and athleticism are a good comparison. Neither is a high speed guy but they use strength, quickness, and leverage very well.

looks like we have enough depth and talent to rotate new fresh guys every series, nobody gets tired.

I think Reed will be at Nose as well .With A'shawn and Allen mannin the ends .We will be rotating every couple of plays with little to no drop off .Should be extremely unnerving for opposing O's .
