You said the talent in the trenches makes it easy to overrate the guys at the second and third level, and I pointed out that 4 of those guys were named all pros this year, which would indicate they were not overrated. To be quite frank the offensive and defensive linemen from Alabama are generally just serviceable NFL players with a few exceptions. The linebackers and defensive backs have been better NFL players

7 fricking pages? For a second there I thought this was a Reggie Bush thread.

Someone in this thread obviously hurt your feelings, you've been very sensitive through out all seven pages. Both LSU and Alabama have several all-pros in the league, some will fail, some will succeed and it has nothing to do with any of our opinions.

The fact that you can only say that there are two defensive backs and two linebackers named all-pro. With all the first round picks at those positions, this illustrates that not everyone of those 1st- 2nd rounders have the skill set or mental makeup to succeed on the same level in the NFL.

If you had to choose between Henry or Fournette as an NFL starter next season who are you taking?
