re: Getting some guys to stay

With the new rookie wage scale, I think we are all in agreement you will see more guys go quickly because the difference between the contracts the guys in the 1st 3 rounds get really isn't that huge. An extra year of getting paid and being one year closer to that lucrative 2nd contract however can be huge.

ETA: Y'all are talking about Anthony Johnson being a disappointment and that he should stay, but it wouldn't be even a little bit surprising if he goes. He has to know that he will be a Combine hero and therefore jump up draft boards.

You never know...Saban had the leaders of his offense and defense come back - AJ + CJ Mosley.

Mosley wasn't officially a starter last year, so I think that is why he came back, and AJ barely had any draft stock at the end of last year (people credited the O-line for his success).
