Rueban Foster is supposed to be looking really good lately and could see a lot of reps this year. He easily had one of the most impressive highlight videos of a LB I have ever seen.
But a freshman LB in a Saban defense? I'm dubious he'll see enough significant time to qualify as one of the top freshmen in the SEC.
Are we talking FPOY or just the best one? Not always the same thing. Tunsil might have a good argument for consideration too, given the importance of his position and the pressure of a no-huddle offense. Of course, I have no idea if he's going to be a day 1 starter or not. His high-school clips were impressive.

Kind of my point. If he is able to figure it all out a freshman LB can get playing time for Saban. Hightower was starting before he tore his ACL freshman year.
He has shown the ability in the past to be one of the best defenders in the country and if he is able to get the mental side of it down the sky is limit.
