NFL scouts agree: Tide's D could play on Sundays - Clarion Ledger
quote:


"I had seen them on TV and on tape, but I was down on the field before they played Arkansas," said one NFL team's chief talent evaluator. "They really look like an NFL team. You hear people say that, but with them it's true. That defense is huge, bigger than most NFL teams. Not just the linemen, but the cornerbacks, the linebackers, the safeties. And they can all run. That secondary. ... it's the best secondary I've ever seen in college football."


quote:

Said one scout: "I think Alabama has three NFL cornerbacks. They can not only cover but they can tackle. They love to tackle."

quote:

Said a third scout, "You watch Alabama play and the speed of the defense is the same as the NFL. It looks like they've got too many people out there."

quote:


And another: "It's like watching a pro team, except they are bigger than a lot of pro teams. You just wish you could take them all."

Technically, Auburn's defense could play on Sundays... It doesn't mean they'll do good.
