Denver's OL is a joke though, and if they want to keep Peyton from another neck injury, they better make some moves. Tebow did take some bad sacks, but their OL is terrible.

BOL has a Recruiting Q/A topic posted this morning. You can post your questions for the staff and they will select different ones to answer. 
ETA: I asked about Antonio Conner, Johnathan Allen, Malik Zaire, and David Kamara.

Just tell us what they say about Nkemdiche.

Landon tweeted him, so that means he is a Bama lock, but he doesn't want to be known as a lock yet.

I'm hoping he returns a kick vs Loston. They might make KR's illegal after Loston gets a hit on him.

I'd be shocked if LC returned a kick of any sort this year, but if he did...

Name:Reggie Ragland
Position: Inside Linebacker
247sports Ranking: 39th overall, 4th in the state of Alabama, 2nd-ranked inside linebacker
High school: Bob Jones (Madison, Ala.)
Commitment Date: Jan. 29, 2011
Recruited By: Jeremy Pruitt
What have you been up to since signing day?
“Basketball and since we got put out … started working out a lot and doing a lot of running.”
How difficult have you found the new workout and running program to be?
“It’s challenging because some of the stuff I haven’t done, but for the most part I am starting to get used to that now. I just don’t like all that running we have to do, but you gotta do what you gotta do.”
What is your present height/weight and do you plan to change your weight any before you get down to Tuscaloosa?
“I am 6-3, 245 pounds. I am gonna try to stay like this and whatever (weight-training) Coach (Scott) Cochran need to put on me, he is gonna put it on me."
When will you be reporting to campus?
“May 27th”
Have you decided on a major yet?
“I’m thinking about doing business. Logistics or something like that.”
Do you have any idea who you will be rooming with?
“Probably Tyler Hayes.”
Outside of football, is there anything else that you are looking forward to experiencing on campus?
“Oh yeah, the females of course. Just getting adjusted to the college life, going to class real early and then doing practice. I’m just ready to see how that is.”
What is it going to be like for you to no longer be playing basketball?
“It’s gonna be tough. Pretty much all I’ve known growing up was basketball. My uncle played basketball at Clemson and then my brother won Mr. Basketball in Alabama. My whole family is just basketball. It kind of hurts, but I know at the same time that football is my meal ticket.”
Speaking of basketball, did you fill out a bracket this year?
“Nah, I didn’t fill out a bracket but I got Syracuse winning it all. Their guard play is gonna kill most everybody.”
Who are you closest with in your signing class?
“I would probably say Brandon (Greene) and Geno (Smith). I talk to Geno all the time on Twitter and Brandon, I was with him a lot down at the Under Armor Game. And finally Eddie (Williams), Eddie is crazy."
What are your expectations going into your freshman year?
“It’s just to get on the field in some kind of way. If it’s not at linebacker, then I might try tight end and then my sophomore year I’ll hopefully be starting.”
Will you be starting off fall practice on offense or defense?
“They are gonna start me off at linebacker in the middle or probably at jack, but Coach Saban wants me to try out tight end and see which one will get me on the field fastest."
Do you know what your number will be yet?
“I don’t know yet”
What is your Favorite movie?
“I just went and saw “Project X”, so I am gonna say that one right now.”
What is your favorite food?
“Everything.”
What is your dream car?
“All I’ve been seeing lately is Chrysler, so I am probably gonna say a Chrysler 300."
What kind of music do you like?
“I’ve been listening to Pandora on 90’s slow jams.”

Yeah he's good as a returner just based off his athleticism, but Deion Belue is gonna be the best returner we've seen since Javy, he just has "it" very similar to Javy or Patrick Peterson
And LSUfan, I know Brockers is gonna be top 15 possibly top 10, and the comparison is with Jesse Williams and that is why I made that comparison, he is same size, played at the same size this year, heavier now though to play NG, just as athletic, just a LOT faster, ran a 4.8 reportedly in front of scouts working out for underclassmen. Consider this about him, he STILL won a starting spot despite very little knowledge of his position, the plays, etc. He will be a monster this year, already buzz of a top 5 pick next year.
At Bama, LSU, Ole Miss, Clemson Nkemdiche would walk in immediately and play quite a bit if not start. I actually like him better than Clowney, he's stronger and has a higher football IQ, Clowney is phenomenal, bit he doesn't really have the technique RN does and I agree with Foster he is amazing as well

Despite winning the ship and embarrassing LSU in NOLA, I was one of the ones who truly believed that J should've been the one spelling TR on Nov 5th, not Lacy. J is a freak, and would've been straight up punishment to the LSU defense and would've left them no chance when TR came back in.

Set the stage for you to make it a fight for the guys to vote to have you face off with AUnite rather than an all LLotSECr battle. See what you can do with that.
