He and CJ Uzomah are quite literally the most underutilized players I can ever remember. We completely missed out on Uzomah.

what position?

probably yes, unless it's a RB

Depends on the position, how much he has played, and how much he could improve his stock by coming back.

Henry? Absolutely not.

A QB who is waiting until a QB-weak draft? Abso-fricking-lutely.

A TE who has been underutilized but has the best measurables of any TE in the draft? Absolutely.

They said he was projected as a second rounder, which is why I had doubts. My argument was it wasn't that high or he would have been gone. Hasn't proven himself besides that one game.

For a guy with his measurables, you don't have to prove yourself that much. They would draft him on potential alone.

Yea, any rational individual reading this thread would come away thinking

"That Iron Puppets really made some great points. The bammers sounded like toothless, uneducated morons."

Clearly. Nailed it.

His value would have been high after the champ game. I wonder if this could screw it up

Hasn't proven himself? You clearly don't understand the role of tight end and I am guessing you missed Saban's comments as to why he hasn't be more utilized as receiver due to the need to provide run blocking for Henry and provide pass protection to first year starter Coker.

Hard to believe that OJ wasn't targeted more. If he still doesn't get thrown to, there's not much reason to come back.

So you think he is coming back to try and improve his draft position one round and risk injury.


Ragland did and so is Allen. Why do you find that so hard to believe.
