Trent Richardson and injury riddled Dee Milliner? Okay. Cool.

Nobody is claiming they did not have talent, just not worthy of their draft positions. By being selected in the first round, you are almost guaranteed to start for most NFL Teams. DBs are not paid by how many tackles they make, as a matter of fact DBs with a lot of tackles shows a problem. First round DBs with only 2-3 Ints is troubling. Bama's first and second rounders have been successful at LBs and WR (Jones and Cooper), but other than that they have been drafted 2 rounds too early.

Your post makes Dre Kirkpatrick out to be one of the best cornerbacks in the league. In reality, per PFF, he graded out almost at the very bottom of the list...of ALL cornerbacks. He was terrible.

Stats are deceiving.

Not all Alabama players are busts. Some are very good, a select few have been incredible, some are mediocre and some flat out suck.
