Meanwhile, AU players who have been drafted have excelled and have make All-Pro.

Let's re-visit AU's last few first rounders and use your logic of what a first rounder should be.

Logic:

So being pretty good and solid is worth a first round draft pick. I would agree if you were drafting based on Raiders Standards.

Ronnie Brown (First rounder, 1 Pro Bowl, 4.2 per carry. 37 TDS) BUST

Cadillac Williams (First rounder, 3.8 yds per carry, only 20 TDs in his career, Not even in the NFL anymore? I know short lifetime for RBs) BUST

Ben Grubbs (First Rounder, been very solid but only 1 Pro Bowl)

Jason Campbell (First Rounder, been on what 3 teams?..Raiders, Redskins, Bears) BUST

Cam Newton, (#1 overall, Has been a BEAST, no one can argue this)

Nick Fairly (stayed hurt only had 15 tackles, 1 Sack in his rookie year, Dareus blew him out of the water last year. Will it keep up. I'm not sure, no one knows.) BUST

Carlos Rogers (2nd All Pro, 1 Pro Bowl, 6 Years after being in the NFL) BUST


Yea, you're right dude. AU produces much of a better first rounder prospect than 'Bama. I'm not even saying 'Bama's first rounders are going to be studs. I'm just pointing out that you're full of shite.

The NFL is a gamble. For every, good player a school produces I can name you 2 bad ones. That is for everyone. Plus, right now....'Bama is just now getting back in the NFL. Because of our probation, scholarship numbers, and overall talent that we had in the past.

They guys we are producing now has been better than the last 10 years.
