If you have a twitter account, search his name and look at the latest mentions. He ragdolls people and plays until the whistle. He was bullying Georgia all night and got up to the third level a few times and just punished their defensive backs. It's pretty funny to watch

Probably wanted to get that 100 yard rushing stat. He just missed that mark against Missouri and Tennessee after being pulled early. One more carry in both games and he would have had 4- 100 yard rushing games.

Najee looked upset the whole game and I think it was because of Waddle. He barely smiled the entire game?

Going to be in rebuild mode on offense next year, probably only 3 starters coming back.

Young better be as good as advertised.




I would not be surprised to see Jones come back next year.

Maybe so ... he got pissed when his touchdown was called short and MAC called QB sneak to score ... he was visually upset on the field . Not a good look honestly

makes sense. I would like for him to have gotten that opportunity but I was also glad to see Trey Sanders get some playing time.

if he keeps playing near as well as he has so far (difficult without Waddle) then he'll probably be a first round NFL pick. Since next year will be about as close to a rebuilding year as happens at Alabama, I would question his judgement if he were to come back in that case.

Call me skeptical but I do not see Jones as a 1st rd pick. He could move up to 2nd rd but this class seems to be loaded for QB prospects based on draft/NFL sites

Just as most years it's the QB. It's just in the cast of Mac that he actually could be our "best" player, based on performance alone.

To the downvoter , you could see it plain as day. He unsnapped his chinstrap hard and walked straight to the bench... didn’t celebrate with teammates after that td and cameras stayed on him sulking on the bench

He looked upset after every single TD he scored. So considering he looked upset even before that Mac Jones TD, I think it’s safe to say it’s because of something else.

Maybe so but Saban talked to him about something as he was coming off the field on the sneak as if trying to explain the call

Most mock drafts out there right now have Surtain, Waddle, Leatherwood, Smith, and Moses in the 1st rd


I laugh at any mock draft that has Moses in the first round because they obviously haven't done any homework. At this point, it looks like he's trying to play himself out of the SECOND day of the draft.

I've seen Barmore listed top 10 a couple times too...and I don't see it. Surtain is the only defensive player, right now, that I could see being a first rounder.

Have you ever seen an Alabama defensive player on one of our many #1 ranked defenses with so much great coaching go higher in the draft than they actually could perform at the next level? A ton of recognition at the All-SEC, All-American, and NFL draft level also comes with it because of collective success. They just look better when everything is clicking together as one.

Isn't the opposite just as true?

Every time the ball is snapped, watch Landon Dickerson. This cat is dominating dudes.

I thought that it was fairly obvious that Najee was kind of "hurting" because Waddle got hurt. Dude was playing like his hair was on fire.

Absolutely, The whole team was hurting. That says a helluva lot about what everyone thought about Waddle. And it apparently wasn't just his speed they luv about this guy.

Mac Jones and Najee are probably the most valuable to our team’s success.

In terms of best overall (highest draft pick), probably Waddle. Assuming he can make a full recovery, his measurables will be off the charts. Everyone in the NFL is looking for the next Tyreek Hill, and Waddle is as close as it gets.

Prior to the injury most mock drafts had Surtain, Leatherwood, and Barmore as the top 3 for us going to the draft.
