Traylor at 35 is NOT an "athletic" player. He's simply a big body to plug in the Nose Tackle position in a 3-4

As long as you dont draft that DT in the first round I say go for it. If you look at the past few years DT's taken in the first round have done a whole lot of NOTHING. Its just not worth it.MelbournePhin said:lets hope some guys pull a travis johnson. go under the radar for their 1st 3 seasons and blow up in their senior year. we need a stud DT to be drafted next year
MrClean said:I'm sure Saban will look closely at how he played last year, and if he sees something there that he believes will add to our depth for a year or two, then he will make an offer. Traylor sure seemed to do ok when we played them last year.
As for drafting a stud OLT in the first next year, none of know yet how welll Alabi will develop. He could show enough as a rookie, to convince the coaches that we can look for help at other positions next year. He is very strong, and athletic as tackles go, so if his technique gets to the same level, we will be fine at OLT.

I remember reading an article like 3 years ago... where a reporter asked various players... "If you where in a bar fight and you could only have 1 guy at your side who would it be"... EVERYBODY said "Tim-Bo! without a doubt..." I also remember one of the players saying something to the effect that he wouldn't even want to be close to Tim-Bo even if he was on his side becuz Timmy could get carried away and hurt him too...
Made me think of Timmy in a new light... the guy is a total animal on the field.
