Only one I disagree with is McClain. I consider him a Shula signee since that's who he committed to

I debated that point. But at the end of the day he signed with Saban like Maze and others.

Saban held on to him and signed him though. Have to make a distinction somewhere.

Arenas was signed by Coach Shula but Coach Saban talked him into staying at Bama. Can CNS not get a half point for him? (g) RTR

This list is going to be harder and harder to make each year with the new talent coming in.

It's already darn near impossible, as the BOL staff has just proven. Even he couldn't do it. This isn't Canadian football...we can't play offense with twelve. And Alabama only uses one running back. Ingram and Richardson were teammates for two years...did they ever play a snap together? If you really want to pick the best player signed at each position, you can't take them both. You have to choose.
And that's not a knock on this list...rather, it just highlights the embarrassment of riches we've had. Heck, I have no idea which one I'd pick.

My apologies. Missed that qualifier.

When I look at that list the DL and LB stand out the most to me. To have Dareus and Williams as DE's when both could easily play NG is just insane cuz both are around 320 lbs and you have Cody in the middle is just insane. Then you've got McClain and Mosley roaming around in the middle while Upshaw and Hightower are rushing off the edges. That's three Lb's that weigh over 255 lbs! Yeah, I'm getting a little to excited thinking about how dominate that defense would be.

Great job staff, I love it. In fact I've done this very excercise as a way to pass the time in class.
How do y'all think this list will change in the next 3 years? Pretty insane to think about almost any of these guys being usurped. Yeldon could surpass one of the other backs...I think the best bet is that Haha beats out Lester eventually. Other thoughts?

Thats cool and understandable. Guess Vlachos did the same committed to Shula stayed with Saban.

Every LB was a butkus finalist or winner and was an All American. STACKED

I believe Vlachos was only offered a grayshirt by Shula. He was looking hard at FSU until Coach Saban offered a full ride, at which point he committed.

LOVE this feature. Seeing all of these guys put together as an All-Star team with all of their accolades listed...Good God! So much talent. I count 8 first rounders with 5 more who have a great shot (Warmack, Milliner, CJ, Cooper, Cyrus, AJ). Outrageous.
That's not even counting 1st rounders like Carpenter and Kareem or budding stars like Yeldon, HaHa, Collins, etc, etc, etc.
Saban has truly built an EA Sports NCAA Football team. Take who you want, win everything, initiate Dynasty mode. Unprecedented run...we're some lucky fans!
