We know Saban has a hard time with mobile QB's. Mettenberger will be getting pressure all day.

I know we didnt burn his redshirt for QB sneaks.

I will guarantee it. On a third and short where it looks like a keeper, Miles will roll him out.

yep. we've used him on 10 meaningless snaps this year as training to play in the most high pressure environment against the top-rated defense.

yeah, he oughta see a lotta playing time.

Why not Redshirt him, perhaps we could get 4 yrs out of him.

Redshirts are extinct bro. Any player worth anything will be gone after 3 years (of eligibility) anyway. If not, they'll stay for a 4th. Redshirting's really only for guys who still need to develop before even seeing the field IMO

This right here. This year was a total waste. To date he has not received any meaningful playing time.

Bingo and yes redshirting these guys did not help them at all

For one, it's too late to redshirt him now. Also, redshirts are really only beneficial for someone who is a clear developmental project and you know will be around for 4 years. Players good enough to leave 3 years out of high school will leave, whether all 3 of those years are spent acutally playing or if 1 of those years was a redshirt.

Yes, and they'll all be leaving once they're 3 years out of high school.

Yep

Look at Michael Brockers. We redshirted him his freshman year, and he ends up going to the draft after only playing two years

Still, you couldn't have known this. They were redshirted bc they wouldnt have gotten meaningful snaps.
