Leads the nation with 11 TFL...I can’t think of another player, in the Saban era, quite like him. He’s really special.
By my count he has 9.5 TFL already this year. Unreal numbers.
No, we have not. He has the speed of Tim Williams with the power of a Jonathan Allen -- to use 2 players from UA.I don't think we have had a player like him under Saban. I think he goes down as the best defensive player of the Saban era.
Will Anderson is imo the best defensive player in college. That said, I don't think that it is possible for Will to be as strong as Jonathan Allen. Jon outweighs Will be 30, perhaps 40 pounds, or so it would seem.No, we have not. He has the speed of Tim Williams with the power of a Jonathan Allen -- to use 2 players from UA.
I think he could and probably will, but i think Minka was as disruptive in alot of ways with his blitzing and cover skills saying he's the best as of now don't know, ee have had so many Ro, J Allen, Tim Williams, Donta, etc. We've been very fortunate last 15 yearsI don't think we have had a player like him under Saban. I think he goes down as the best defensive player of the Saban era.
Derrick Henry?
Thanks. That’s even better! Extrapolate that out over 15 games and he’ll be an all-timer WITH ANOTHER YEAR to go.Leads the nation with 11 TFL...
Obviously...but he holds the end just as well when needed. He's not just a fast rusher like TW...who just as often was out of position.Will Anderson is imo the best defensive player in college. That said, I don't think that it is possible for Will to be as strong as Jonathan Allen. Jon outweighs Will be 30, perhaps 40 pounds, or so it would seem.
ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Phillip Sims?
if he can stay healthy, he certainly has a chance. I personally think he also has a CHANCE to be mentioned with our all time greats ( Lee Roy, Derrick, Biscuit, Woody Lowe ). To be compared to a Derrick Thomas is stratospheric !I don't think we have had a player like him under Saban. I think he goes down as the best defensive player of the Saban era.
Yes! (At least how he affects offenses)A young Derrick Thomas
