Putting Ronnie Harrison over Haha is probably the questionable choice out of the rest.


Harrison isn't anything to wrote home about, at least so far. But Eddie and Fitz are both better free safeties than HaHa, and Collins and Harrison are better strong safeties....mainly because HaHa really isn't one.

LS: Carson Tinker


Unfortunately no longer on a roster. Jags cut him 6 weeks ago. With veteran minimum going by length in league, unsure if he'll get picked up unfortunately.

I think you weaken the idea by trying to list positionally that specific. Lot of names at DL and LB, but if you try to make them 43 DEs or 34 OLBs, it makes it a lot less impressive.

Haha had the best season of his career in 2018 per PFF. Lot of teams don't run pure SS anymore, Bears aren't this year with Haha and EJ.

Oh silly me...I forgot fans know so much more than his peers, PFF, and the All-Pro selectors...

Pretty sure this isn't true.

Not having a serviceable kicker in the NFL would cost at least two wins. Many League games are decided by less than a TD, and not having someone that can tack on 3 on a late Fourth quarter drive is devastating.


Yeah, it's really cool that Bama has enough alums to potentially fill out a roster. But that team, as constructed, would be pretty lucky to go 2-14

To be fair, all it takes to be a 2nd team All-Pro sometimes is to have just one of the voters vote for you. Ha Ha had 4 out of 50. That’s how there was a 10 way tie for 2nd team All Pro ILBers in 2016. It isn’t nearly the same level of excellence as 1st team All Pro which usually requires around half the votes (25) at least.

Also the NFL top 100 is kinda BS. The players (and only like a 1/3 of the players I think) only vote for their top 10 “best” players. And if you look at some of the ballots the players that voted post on social media, you’ll see that a lot of them vote for their teammates/friends or other really popular players. That’s why there’s hardly any OL on the list because most people don’t know their names.

Oh it is. They way they used to trash him, you’d think he was the worst safety in the league even though he was far from that. I’m not sure why they disliked him (not sure most of them hated him, more dislike) so much but they did.

Lucky to go 2-14? Did you see the Giants last year? They won 5 games and stack up similarly to this All Bama team. Maybe because of poor QB play and a average O-Line they would be at the bottom of the league...

After next years draft when Tua and all the other offensive weapons get into the league they would be playoff contenders every year. The defense would be too deep and talented and the offense would have some serious firepower.

Also LOL to the Packers, once Rogers is gone they will become the next Cleveland Browns.

Fix the Qb next yea


Just run the wildcat for a year until Tua comes along

only thing thats not good to elite is the Oline



Honestly nuts given the talent / college production of UA's lines over the years (& high draft picks)


If the NFL has so much trouble scouting CFB developed OL prospects, crazy that people put so much stock in HS Recruiting rankings for OL
