Also shout out to Barrett Jones, but I feel like it's definitely between Dickerson and Kelly

Ryan Kelly just based on his success in the pros so far. Just my humble opinion.

Antoine Caldwell was pretty legit

Just based on college performance, Dickerson.
He graded out at 99.6 percent on his blocking assignments this year.

I think Dickerson is just behind Kelly as a technician but I prefer Landon for the edge he brought to the game. Tone setters like him aren’t easy to come by and they are vital to have on the offensive line. Barrett Jones was the same way, and to be honest Barrett probably outperformed his natural ability better than any others.

Personally I like Dickerson better. He's larger, and like someone else mentioned I have a special appreciation for the attitude and character he brought to the field.
Not sure he'll have a better pro career than Kelly but this is about college so I'll go with him.

No respect for Vlachos short pants.

Dickerson because he is more physical and in my opinion he is just better

This isn't good thread.. because we've had lot of good centers here at Alabama:
LINK
Note: For our purposes, Jones and Ross Pierschbacher are primarily considered guards, so are not included on this specific list.
1. Dwight Stephenson
2. Ryan Kelly
3. Vaughn Mancha
4. Sylvester Croom
5. Antoine Caldwell
6. Wes Neighbors
7. Lee Roy Jordan
8. William Vlachos
9. Joe Damnanovich
10. Steve Mott
11. Bradley Bozeman
12. Paul Crane
13. Carey Cox
14. Shorty Propst
15. Jim Krapf
16. Tobie Sheils
17. Paul Hogan
9. Roger Shultz
20. Mike Adcock
21. Jimmy Grammer
22. Pat O’Sullivan
23. John Wozniak
24. Gordon Holmes
25. C.C. Countess
Dickerson probably will be in top 10. Had he not get hurt in SEC Championship, then he would've finished in top 5. Right now... It's Kelly.

Not taking a shot at you - but - did you read the title of the thread?
Posted on 1/6/21 at 9:43 am to Pastor Mike
Yes, I read it... and you know if you look at other posts that was throwing in different names of Center... and i thought it was great opportunity to include top 25 list.... and if you look at the bottom of the my post, I answered his question.

Didn't you suggest that it was a bad thread? Dude started a legitimate thread. Downvote me. But there's no need to be a jerk
Posted on 1/6/21 at 9:56 am to Panthers4life
Thanks, Chris. We appreciate your article.
Posted on 1/6/21 at 10:07 am to Pastor Mike
I didn't downvote you, if that's what you're accusing me of.
I didn't say it was a bad thread. I was just saying its probably not a good thread to compare two players when we have others that we need to consider. that's all. Damn, everyone woke up on wrong side of bed... Drink some coffee and you'll feel better.

Asking who is the best center of the Saban era isn’t an exclusive conversation. He’s been here 14 years.

Well I certainly apologize for mistaking "this is not a good thread" for "this is a bad thread".

Pastor Mike,
Chill out. You don't have to be a prick today. I'm not interested in going back and forth with you over something that's not a big deal. You're being little too sensitive today. Enjoy your day.

To early but I'll go with Ryan Kelly. However Barrett Jones was probably my favorite with Dickerson being a close second.
