dont know if this was posted yet but saw this on Don Banks pivotal picks: AFC
MIAMI DOLPHINS
Channing Crowder, LB, Florida, third round, 2005
New coach Nick Saban's first objective last season in South Florida was to establish a tough and tenacious identity for his defense, making resiliency its mantra. In Crowder, the sixth pick of the third round, Saban found an athletic, rangy linebacker who should be a willing and productive foot soldier in Saban's army for years to come. Crowder started 14 games last season, and although he came up short in individual statistics, he helped set the tone for a defense that resolved to fight opponents all day long.
