Which was complete bullshite. With all the experience we lost on D we all knew we'd lose one or two games. Ended up losing three.

On paper, they are the most talented team in the country. That's just a fact.

How many preseason AAs will be on this 2014 team? Cooper is a possibility based on 2012 season, but I can't think of any other. There are some talented guys, but they haven't done anything yet to warrant All America status (Howard would be an example).

Landon Collins, Trey Depriest, A'Shawn Robinson, Yeldon, Deandrew White, Christion Jones

Like I said, on paper. As in loaded with the best collection of recruits, on paper, in the country.

I can't take anything you say seriously anymore after you claimed Yeldon was better than Hill.
Good day sir

I never technically said he was better. Just threw out some facts that nobody wanted to believe. I think they are equally talented, but I hate TJ for his fumblitis. I hope one day you will take me seriously hg. I need that

Nah, I'd take this crew over Hanks, Maze, and McCoy all day everyday.

Bama will win based on how their defense performs. it doesnt matter who the QB is. This years passing game, even with the experienced Mccarron and talented wide outs was not much different numbers wise when facing stiff competition with the other Saban QB's..

It's as talented as is any team since 2008, just the least experienced since 2008. But it's a team that will still be in the SEC picture all year and more if the QB situation is worked out.
I see 11-2 or so with a lot of momentum for what sets up nicely in 2015.

Of the six players you listed the only one with a shot at preseason AA honors is the LB. That's just because he is the best at his position at bama.
Those two WRs won't make preseason all SEC much less AA.

What impressed me the most about Henry in that game was his agility and vision. Combine those traits with his size and strength and he'll be one of the better RBs to come out of the SEC in a while. That's assuming he stays healthy of course.

None of them will be Preseason AA, nor should they.
I think we'll see Yeldon, Cooper, DePriest, A'Shawn, and Collins on the preseason All-SEC teams. Don't know how many of them, if any, will be on the postseason lists though.

but it appears that the key skill positions on offense are lacking.
Stopped reading here. There are plenty of question marks (relatively speaking) on next year's squad, but the overall combined talent at WR, RB, and TE is probably the best in the Saban era.
