MSURacerDT55 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 0-16 for the simple fact that they have never had an NFL caliber QB since McCarron. Not really a sound comparison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Alabama qb that has been ok is AJ McCaron and isnt even a starting caliber QB. Well, just off memory, from their 2016-2017 teams (players who now in NFL), you'd have a competent NFL LT in Robinson (more than at least 5 NFL teams have), an NFL calibre TE in Howard, Johnathan Allen (fine in NFL) on the DL, and they're usually good at having monsters on their DL. Reuben Foster at MLB who is already probably a top 10 backer in NFL, and a few wildcards who are expected to be great in the secondary. So, they would have genuine raw materials that could compete in the NFL. Obviously there's a lot of holes, but I'd certainly take a few of their players over some established NFL vets.

Alabama CB arent all star cb. One below or two below avg DB in the nfl will be gone after and picked on. They shell out 3 to 4 starting caliber NFL player each year. This will not cut it....

Browns?) have more NFL talent and quality than Alabama 2016 (or whenever) had? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Easily 0-16. I mean, just as a reference point, Cardale Jones, who is a 3rd string NFL QB, made them look horrific a few years ago. Could you imagine what any 1st string QB would do to them? What did they have, 4-5 1st rounders this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelonebillsfan Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 They'd lose every game by at least 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst NFL team still has NFL caliber talent on it, Alabama at MAX has 10 guys that will maybe potentially crack an NFL roster at some point, one day. They would get destroyed. They could have any pick of their QB's they have had in the last 15 years, it doesn't matter, the talent disparity between the college game and the NFL is far too wide.

Last year's Alabama team had maybe 3-4 seniors, maybe 12-20 players overall on the squad who may eventually earn an NFL contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mox Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 They wouldn't win a game because Jalen Hurts would be the worst QB in the NFL. Tua is good but he'd also be what, 19? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazer026 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I feel like Alabama never really has a high powered offense that scores a ton, and think they would really struggle on offense. I think they usually have a good defense and think that would hold up "ok". But I think they'd go 0-16 for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SammyBradwater Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Let's say that Alabama has 4 guys go in the first round each year. On average, a 1st rounder has what, a 50% chance of becoming a decent NFL starter? So Alabama would have two seniors capable of going up against their NFL counterparts? Maybe a few more to account for lower round guys who make it. And that doesn't even guarantee they'll be good to excellent players. You have to remember that the starters on every NFL team, even the Browns, are made up of the top 0.1% of college players. They're the superstars of the college world. Alabama would not stand a chance against any NFL roster, especially when you consider how many of their players wouldn't even be seniors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their defense would be a top bottom 25th to 30th.....and offense dead last.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
