No, you are trying to justify their picks based on starts and select stats. Again, it is the chicken vs egg debate, they are getting starts because of draft positions, and their production doesn't justify it.

Doesn't really matter if NFL scouts or coaches should recognize them as busts or not. The fact is that Alabama players continue to be drafted in the 1st and 2nd round at a much higher number than other schools thus feeding an already powerful recruiting setup. Whether they're busts or deserve the money is immaterial. They're getting lucrative pro contracts and recruits see that. 44 players drafted since 2010 with 23 of those coming in the first 2 rounds vs 17 overall.
