worst DB we had last year, it was Belue who made me cringe every time they threw the ball his direction. Jones at least had the excuse just learning where Belue just never could figure it out.
Belue was the best DB we had last year. He was never a lockdown guy, but he was quietly having a very solid season and never really got burnt like he did in 2012. The difference between him and Jones is in 2012 you could see the growth of Belue throughout the year, and on top of that he was almost always in position, he just couldn't find the ball. Jones was out of position a lot.
But the thing is it does NOT need to be confused as bashing him. That is the number one problem on bama boards. Don't like the way a guy played? You're bashing him. No, just no.

Belue was the best CB we had last year but that really isn't saying much. We were filled to the brim with youth at that position. I thought we would be okay with Sunseri and Clinton-Dix playing behind them and we were for a time. But when Sunseri went down for the season, we kind of lost that crucial leadership in the defensive backfield. I think that hurt us in the Auburn and Oklahoma games more than people know.
