Why do we have the Aggies’ receivers above the Crimson Tide’s? It’s certainly not that we don’t recognize the talent present among Bama’s pass-catchers, but they did not fare as well in our grades last season.

Let’s start with Texas A&M. Christian Kirk is a dark-horse Heisman candidacy after his 80-catch, 1,019-yard, 7-TD true freshman season, particularly excelling as a slot weapon, ranking seventh among returning Power-5 wideouts in yards per route run and first in touchdowns out of the slot. He is also a big-time threat as a returner. Josh Reynolds forms a nice complement, with the fourth-best deep-ball catch rate, pulling down all 11 of his catchable deep targets last season for 450 yards and two TDs. Rounding out the group is Ricky Seal-Jones, a big target, and Speedy Noil, another explosive run-after-catch threat who graded very well in 2014 after an average campaign last season.

Calvin Ridley had a breakout season in 2015, ranking 10th in returning Power-5 WRs in yards per route run, after putting up his two highest grades of the season in SEC title game versus Florida and semifinal playoff game against Michigan State. Tight end O.J. Howard put up huge numbers in the national title game, with five catches on five targets for 208 yards and two touchdowns, earning his best receiving grade of the season. However, he wasn’t nearly that level of receiving threat the rest of the season, grading better as a blocker. ArDarius Stewart is another talented pass-catching option who graded well in 2015, and Robert Foster is another potential breakout candidate following his lost 2015 season due to injury, but overall, this unit simply didn’t accumulate the same level of production as the Aggies.

We expect both units to perform very well in 2016, but we’ll give A&M the slight edge for now.


Some numbers to go along with PFF's ranking. Most have A&M and Bama at the top of the SEC and near the top in the country.

Hard to take seriously any article that fails to take into account Gehrig Dieter. 94 receptions, 1033 yds, 10 tds. Of all players with more than 75 receptions, he was by far the best at making the catch (less than two drops all year). Dude is a beast.

That reference is 7(?) years old now and doesn't even pertain to WRs.

Ok well then you just don't want to read any posts.

It's not our fault you are barely literate.

You're a Gump. You don't get to talk shite to a TEXAS AMC graduate about academics

You are the one basically saying only Bama fans have room to talk on an all SEC forum. That is pretty much the dumbest argument that can be made in context. What you want is called a Bama forum.

And just because someone graduated from Bama doesn't mean they are more than barely literate. You could have been good at playing football.

Nothing about academics was brought up by me. This is a football forum, so lets stick to that. We own your arse!

I'm sure you personally have come contributed a ton to Bama football's success on the field.
