Someone help me understand why we're taking 1 more DB? We already have arguably the best 2 safeties in the nation committed. We have 3 stout corners in Carter, Turnage and Williams. That's 5 guys. We taking 6? If we drop Williams as a corner, wouldn't we want to replace him with another corner? Isn't Battle a pure safety? Just trying to make sense of our DB recruiting. Not that I'm complaining, they're all elite players.
Also, we really need to close the deal with Dean, Sanders and Neal. Strictly from a PR and momentum perspective...we don't want to take our foot of Kirby's throat in recruiting. We need to reclaim the #1 class this year by finishing strong--unlike last year, especially with Webb flaking out on us.

Word is Battle can play both corner and safety. I think he's faster than Williams too.

Don't go there. Webb did what was best for him and he did it with class. We'll be fine on the OL without him.

Probably only take 4 DB. If Battle or Gates commits. Look for 2 of Williams, Turnage and Hellams to decommit.
I will take Hill, Carter, Battle and Turnage.
Bama loaded up at CB last year, need some safeties in this class.

Maybe Saban is expecting some attrition in our secondary? Possibly some players transferring? I have no clue but we know that Saban is always playing chess.

I think Saban was tired of having to put wide receivers at DB so they'd have guys in case of emergency.
In all seriousness, we play with six of those guys a lot of the time, and aside from Surtain, everyone else that plays back there will probably be gone after next season.
