At corner I think Patrick Surtain was the best. He never had a lot of interceptions but the guy literally locked down half the field. QBs didn’t throw his way.

At safety I will go with Eddie Jackson. He was a very rangy athlete and a ball hawk. Safety was just a natural position for him.

I miss players like the 4 listed so far. And turnovers.

Minkah was a great playmaker. Kareem surprised me in the 07 season.

Best safety was either Eddie Jackson or Minkah. Best corner is really difficult. Surtain, Arenas, Kirkpatrick, Humphrey and Milliner were all 1st team All American. I am partial to Surtain or Humphrey.

Corner: DeMarcus Milliner (Hands Down)
Safety: Mark Barron

You couldn't throw the ball on Dee Milliner's side.

Milliner not making it in the pros is right up there with Trent Richardson on the head scratch meter.

Milliner did not want to go too the Jets and on top of that... injuries plague him and some of those injuries were ones he had while playing at Alabama.

Why should I delete this post? I said nothing wrong. Some of you trolls need to leave.

Levi Wallace for me. Yeah, he’s probably not the best CB to play at Bama, but he became one of my favorite players.

He walked on and fulfilled a dream for his dying father that had Lou Gehrig’s disease.

Levi got his chance against FSU when he replaced Diggs that night. He never looked back after that.

His father never got to see him play at Bama when he was still alive, but he fulfilled a fathers dream for his son.

Remaster is saying they deleted whatever they posted, not that you should delete the thread.
