"Departing: No one." Pretty much all that needs to be said.

Yeah, well, that's not much of an article. I had to flush it out a little more ...

Where do you think this WR corp could rank nationally, is it just a solid SEC group or aree we looking at potentially a nationally elite group?

This group will be one of the biggest strengths of the team in 2013. Having quality depth is so key. Having Norwood and Bell back for their fifth year is gigantic. Norwood is definitely one of the most overlooked players on the team. I'm interested to what Chris Black can do. Many were just as high on him in summer drills as they were Cooper. Shame he got hurt because he definitely would have played.

In his preseason position breakdown I pretty much guarantee that Phil Steele will have Alabama listed among the top teams at wide receiver.

The RF twins (Falkins and Foster) were mentioned, but nothing on ArDarius Stewart. Should we read into that an expectation that he will actually be starting off on Defense when he arrives this summer?

Don't forget A. Stewart who's likely to begin at WR. Awesome athlete.

Stewart is going to be in the defensive backs writeup. Don't read anything into that, it's just so I don't duplicate him.

IMO, it will be a nationally elite group. Cooper is already one of the best WR's in the country. With guys like Norwood, Bell, White, and Christion Jones...all solid, consistent, and legit threats...and newcomers like Black, Shinn, and Foster coming in, I can't imagine too many teams have as much talent. And like I said, we already have one elite WR in Coop.
A 5th year SR starting for his 3rd year in a row, who is one of the best QB's in the game, won't hurt matters. Can't wait to see what this group can do through the air.

24/7 and most other services has O.J. Howard at TE but some services has him listed at WR due to him being so athletic at receiving. When there is a TE/HB with this potential,,,,wow at the possibilities with the pass catching squad!
Other than Hunter from Arky are there another TE prospect Saban is serious about going after for the 2013 class?

We are looking at a very versatile group of WR here. One of the best groups we have had ever here.

Spring is going to be very intriguing at WR/TE.
A-Day DEPTHCHART :
SE-A.Cooper, K.Bell*, D.White*,
slot-Ch.Jones, Cy Jones, C.Black, P.Barrineau
Flk-K.Norwood, M.Shinn, D.WoodsonJr, R.Falkins
TE-B.Vogler, M.Faciane, K.Freitag
HB-O.J. Howard,H.Jones, C.McCarron
with Bell & White both hoping to return to form after injuries during the 2012 campain the question arises.....
with C-Dix, Sunseri, Collins, Perry, & the expected return of J.Williams at saftey, do either Eddie Williams or Jai Miller see time at WR come spring ?
