RB for obvious reasons...probably DBs as well.

It's such a strange feeling not having to worry about QB play going into a season

You guys are always strong on both of those year in and year out, not just because of LF7 but pretty much all the time. Good positions to be strong at though.

I think this has a chance to be Alabama's strongest group at corner in a while. Marlon Humphrey and Minkah Fitzpatrick played very well as freshman last year and have shut down corner talent and now a year of experience.
Tony Brown looked pretty good as true freshman before getting in the dog house last year. Kendall Sheffield now has a RS year under his belt and could have the most natural corner talent of them all.
I think all four of those guys above were 5 star recruits.
Depth includes senior Maurice Smith - as a potential 5th/emergency option at corner he is actually quite a luxury.
Alabama also signed 3 more top corners in 2016, but those true freshman should almost certainly get to RS and develop for the next wave.

Wide receiver and secondary

I don't know if there's really a strong position per se. If I had to name one, it would be receiver.
It is definitely WR. Kirk is as good as anyone. Reynolds is a stud. RJS is a nice possession #3 type. And Speedy hasn't transferred (yet?).

Your secondary is mid tier at best

#4 in the nation last year.
Armani Watts is one of the top safeties in the nation

Lets be more specific. Our safeties are pretty damn good. And we play 3 of them.
And while we're at it, I can't believe I missed the most obvious position of strength, but DE. Myles & Daedae are great. Add it some JR back ups and a stud freshman coming in to complete.

And he's only our 2nd best S.

At what, exactly?
A&M was #5 in the SEC in opposing passer rating overall, #6 in the SEC in opposing passer rating vs Power 5 opponents.

WR. We have well over 2000 receiving yards and 28 TDs from last season returning. Plus Keon Hatcher who was our starting X is back after missing almost all of last season. And Jared Cornelius missed half the season and still had 400 yards.

If I used passer rating I would have someone say that was silly
