I dont buy the hype on Saban making players good NFL talents. He gets them there but alot of your players go to the league and become career backups. The only true superstar in the NFL from Bama is Julio.

Good god, my friend, are you “limited?” You must just pay attention to the NFL headliners and ignore the rest of a pro football team’s positions (though I wonder about Ingram, Henry, Cooper, et Al.). I suggest you take a look at the OL, DL and LB stars in the NFL from Alabama.
Oh wait... come to think of it, inability to identify the source of core strength of s football team is not just the LSU’s fans problem, but is apparently the LSU staff’s problem too... For years you people just ignored recruiting the trenches and fielded a team composed of about 60 CBs and Ss. And you wonder why LSU is a perennially third or fourth place finisher...in the SECwest?

Can't fix stupid.
Just on the top 2 defenses in the NFL, Ravens and Redskins, there are 5 former Alabama starters. CJ Mosely is widely regarded as one of the top NFL LB's, Jonathon Allen and Daron Payne have transformed the Redskins DL to among the league's best units, and Ryan Anderson is a solid playmaker at LB. Marlon Humphrey entered entered the NFL a little raw, yet has been solid with his best years ahead of him.
That is just from the NFL's top 2 defenses.
As far as Julio being our only star, he is not the only Falcon WR from Alabama who could be considered a star, Calvin Ridley.
But hey, whatever helps you feel better about the coming 8 in a row.

Mark Ingram isn't a Superstar, but he has been a consistent starter.
Trent Richardson was probably a bust, but he still saw the field a lot.
That's just off the top of my head. I'm sure there are several on defense.
