But his "genius poker skills" are getting blown out of proportion. What GM in the league who has the second pick is gonna tell the other 31 teams who they are drafting? What GM isn't gonna explore all the options? What GM isn't gonna try an move down if the player they really want is gonna be available a few picks later?
I know you guys are excited but what Saban is doing is pretty run-of-the-mill so far.

Losman7 said:He is definatly an upgrade over Wanny, or so it seems. It just sounds like, from some of the posts here, the man has already turned the #2 pick into two firsts and two 2nds and lead you to 3 consecutive Super Bowls already.
I just feel that unless you make the playoffs alot of you finfans are gonna be severely let down by Saban, and I think they may be shooting a little high.
