if you could reassemble the 2016 Alabama defense in the NFL, it would be a top 5 NFL defense imo.


I'm not even kidding. It is a damn shame that unit couldn't get a ring.

You'd probably need to upgrade the OLBs and find another CB but it'd definitely be an imposing group. Quite a few of those guys could end up being All Pros at some point in their careers.

You're probably not wrong about OLB honestly. Love Ryan Anderson but he's not a star pass rusher in the pros and Tim Williams is a 3rd-down rusher.

Sounds like HaHa Clinton Dix is likely headed back to the Redskins. For those keeping score that would mean 5-7 of the Redskins defensive starters will be Alabama players. 2 starters on each level of the defense.
Hold the phone, the Bears are hosting Ha Ha tonight and tomorrow. Would not surprise if Eddie Jackson convince Ha Ha not to leave Chicago.

AJ released as backup QB from the Raiders

Just saw this on the wire. Apparently the Bengals are looking for a backup. Maybe he will end up back where he started.

I'm assuming that the Ravens probably offered more guaranteed money which is important for a tailback at his stage in the career. I hope it doesn't go like this but tailbacks at his age are more likely to get cut and retiring than seeing the full-term of their contract.

It seems like the best way to guarantee your starting qb will never get injured is to hire AJ as the backup,
