Not that I don’t think losing Jeudy would hurt y’all, but I think y’all have enough depth at WR that it wouldn’t be the position that would cost y’all the most if you lost one.
It’s why I didn’t say Stingley, Delpit, or Fulton, who I think are actually are the three best players on the team. If we lose one we still have probably a top 5 secondary in college football and maybe top 10.

Yes, but we do have experienced wide receivers. I think Waddle might have the biggest year out of all of them.

I lost my "Go Joe!" gif. I'll make another one for the season. I'm a Joe fan. I like tough qb's who play with attitude. Reminds me of old school qb's.

Gonna have to disagree with you on this one. Yeah, Jeudy is our best receiver and losing him would suck, but this is probably the deepest and most talented WR group overall in Saban’s tenure. Ruggs, D. Smith, Waddle, and maybe even Metchie are all more than capable of collectively filling his shoes. Honestly I think Waddle might even be better than Jeudy.
Outside of Tua I would say that Dylan Moses would be the biggest loss. We are pretty thin at ILB and the backups are all underclassmen and Ben Davis.

I saw it in an old bumped thread not long ago.
Hard not to be a fan of the kid. Just a tough, gritty competitor.
Been so long since we had one of those under center...

The idea for that gif came to me when I was watching LSU play in a bar, and the owner is from BR(It's actually a cajun style restaurant). He and his friends yelled, "Go Joe!" when he took off running. So I grabbed my laptop and made the gif.

You just jinxed somebody bro. That is so wrong

Nobody is backing up Fromm /‘s that’s the problem

Outside of our center, loosing Burrow with an unproven Myles would suck big pecker

Who is backing up Fromm this year?
No one you would likely have heard of.
"Battle" would be between:
Stetson Bennett - 5'10"ish PWO who transferred to JuCo then got recruited back to Athens last year (if the fricker would have stayed we could have given him the damn scholarship with no initial counter cost, but that's another issue
) - He drew rave reviews from the 1st team defense in 2017 during the run to the CFP for his efforts on the scout team replicating Baker Mayfield. He's undersized and while he has a lot of pep on the ball for his size, he's certainly not a proven commodity at this point or
Dwan Mathis - True Freshman - big guy 6'5" or 6'6" but coming off of brain surgery for removal of a cyst and hasn't yet been cleared for contact (not that any of the QBs are getting hit in practices right now). Definitely not game ready at this point, would have to have a pretty stellar camp to not be destined for a redshirt in all likelihood. Only scenario I see changing that is if Fromm were to get injured early and the impressions were that it was severe.. In that case, his redshirt is likely burned whether we start him or he becomes the backup.
Short answer, Fromm is the player we can least afford to lose, by a mile.
I also agree with the honorable mentions referenced: JR Reed is the defensive leader and Specs is such a weapon from field position to scoring threat.

Stetson Bennett and Dwan Mathis. Bennett is serviceable but...well.....and Mathis is very raw. He can be very good, but right now he needs a bit of work.

LT, Tega. Most important position with the biggest drop off if injured. 2nd K Anders Carlson

Losing Burrow would suck but I feel good about Brennan as our back up. Cush would be a killer.

Outside of Tua, I'd say Moses is most valuable. He has the most experience and needs to stay healthy to avoid some of the struggles Bama had last year at LB.

Damn that was a good one

This one is so obvious i don't even know if I should say it.
Kelly Bryant
If he goes down we go from winning 8 to 10 games - to Taylor Powell taking snaps... which could turn out ok, but it would be a very uncertain/unstable environment to say the least.
