so they've been the best defense in the league for half the season yet rank 23rd? Their defense has improved but they aren't the best in the league, give me a break

I should have said I heard this from Chris Collingsworth lol. He said the Bucs defense started out slow but "for the past 6 or 7 weeks have been the best defense in the league and it isn't even close". I might have missed a couple words here and there but the part where he said 6 or 7 weeks have been best by far is what he said.

Yeah he's resurrected his career by moving to linebacker. He's putting up crazy stats.

In defense of LSU guy, Jarvis Landry deserves a spot. He's a great player

Pro Bowl players
Alabama (6): Amari Cooper, Dont'a Hightower, C.J. Mosley, Julio Jones, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Landon Collins

1st Rd Draft Busts
Alabama (7): Dee Milliner, Chance Warmack,Trent Richardson, Dre Kirkpatrick, James Carpenter, Rolando McClain,Andre Smith

So so risky to draft any bama player in the 1st rd after being coached by little Nicky.

You do know that there is a difference between a bust and a disappointment right

Chance Warmack, Dre Kirkpatrick, James carpenter Rolando McClain, and Andre Smith

Are all starters in the NFL this year or were starters prior to injury or suspension this year.

Busts are guys like Ruben Randle who is already out of the league or Keke Mingo who only plays special teams after being a top 10 pick.

Yes sir.

Mark Ingram and DJ Fluker would make the latter group.

2nd rd draft picks are not eligible for "bust" status.

If you would like to include them I can counter with Terrance Cody, Eddie Lacy, TJ Yeldon, Javier Arenas and Courtney Upshaw.

Randle isn't out of the league because he can't play. Hes the laziest person on earth. He had some good years for the Giants. And he was a 2nd round pick.

He's accomplished way way more than Yeldon or Rueben Randle have.




Kirkpatrick is a starter and has been decent this year too.

KJ Wright not making it is wrong.

Thought Darius Slay had an decent shot at Conerback, but KJ is one of the better linebackers in the league.

Just let them have it. Successful NFL players is all they have had since tdecline.

Eventhough Bama has had more pro-bowlers 2 out of the last 3 years, passed them this season for most active players,has more starters in the NFL, Bama players get drafted higher and make more money as well.

Just let them have it.

Busts? Disapointments? Does it really matter?

Bama has a shitload of players in the NFL that were freaking animals in college that are either busts or disappointments.

Let's not bother with semantics.
