Help Me with a Debate re: CJ Mosely

Coming from a player on the team that has had to block Mosely for 2 years as well as Jarvis Jones and Manti Te'o, Mosely is the best linebacker in the country and by far the hardest to block. Hard to say he's not top 5 after hearing that.

I agree with all of you. My friend cannot get over the fact that Nico was always the choice in clear run situations. He says players like Hightower, Upshaw, etc were not handicapped in this way, so CJ is not an "elite" player.
But Saban would kill us all for making such comparisons.

The fact he is a consensus All-American and doesn't play "all the time" is just crazy...

A friend of mine asked me to list up to 5 "top" players for Alabama in 2013. I listed Mosley, McCarron, Yeldon, Cooper, and Cyrus. My friend says Mosley does not belong on the list because he is "situational" player. I say it is nuts to say the team's top tackler by far, a consensus all-American and All-SEC player is not a top player on his own team. You?

CJ is a tackling machine , sideline to sideline and will absolutely be top 5 on our team. I expect also first or second team All -American. Certainly will be first team SEC.

Your friend doesnt know how our defense is run. Tell him to STFU cause Mosley is the best player on our entire roster.

For me, I would have put 5 offensive linemen on the list. Mosley is great, but did not even start. LOL (I do agree he is one of the best at his position, so don't get panties in wad)

I agree with your top 5 but can't wait to see how Clinton-Dix and Hubbard develop. I have a feeling both will be all Americans before they leave UA.
