It's no secret to anybody that most bama players are injured on arrival to the NFL. Foster couldn't even take part in the combine and played hurt all year.

HBO 4 are lucky they didn't try that at Alabama.

They'd all be at the bottom of the Demopolis Lock & Damn right now.


REC isn't that sloppy, they'll make it look like an accident. Ask Logan Young's family.

Boating accident during a nice fishing morning on the Tombigbee. Boat troubles, current flipped them. Very sad story.

Bama players lack of success in the NFL

Didn't Bama lead the all college teams in most Pro Bowlers and All-Pros?

Bama has plenty of players that do well in the NFL but not all of them will. Glad to know you're so concerned about it.

Most of bama's players hobble into the NFL and can't compete at their peak level because Saban all but forces them to play through injuries.


Yea, especially the NFL leading 6 Pro-Bowlers from Alabama. Imagine if they were able to perform at peak level!

How many did Auburn have? Must have been a bunch since they were all competing at their peak level.

At least they aren't afraid to put their bodies on the line for their team when the game is hanging in the balance. Very unlike one former Auburn player we all know and love.....

Ru4real? Bama players lack of success? Alabama has plenty of players in the NFL with tons of success.

Why the hell is everybody always so damn worried about Alabama players in the NFL? Worry 'bout how your own damn players are producing.

So when's the last Bama player to win an MVP. Or QB a team to the Super Bowl? Or QB a team to a playoff win for that matter?

QBing a team to the Super Bowl means nothing when you don't have the heart to win it.

AJ McCarron two years ago. Chad Johnson just ruined it for him.

With the amount of 5* players Saban has recruited the last 10 years he should be able to field a whole pro bowl game. There's a reason he can't and the reason bama players limp into the league.

Do you disagree? I mean the guy hand picks his 5* players and they do make it into the NFL, but they're beat down.
