Did you guys watch the breakdown? Ross didn't eat Surtain up. Ross balled on a safety in McKinney and one of the worst DBs we've had in Saban era. Who were the elite DBs Ross faced when they played ND? Just because we put a scrub against him and he balled doesn't make him elite.



I think Lawrence is a great QB and a for sure future 1st round draft pick, but as of now I’d argue Ross is more elite than Lawrence and a safer draft prospect.

He probably is, but we made him look like a super star. He wasn't the only player that our defense made to look elite. We didn't stop anyone after the Auburn game. That was easily worst Saban defense I have seen.

I disagree. Lawrence, in my opinion, has much to prove but just off of physical gifts he's a top 5 pick. There are a lot of WRs that have come and gone in college football who looked great against inferior competition and that was mostly due to their size and not speed or route running. But, as soon as they faced a DB who was technically sound they folded. I remember Mike Williams at USC. Justyn Ross is nowhere near a Mike Williams at this stage.
