Looks like all the top Bama players have injury or character concerns

[Silverstar]

Was checking out the Draftcountdown scouting reports on these Bama players and just thought I'd share the info.

RB Trent Richardson
Relatively minor concerns about maturity/character
Battled some injuries so durability might be an issue
Surgery to repair left ankle ligaments in high school
Sat out two contests with a sprained knee in 2010
Arthroscopic surgery on left knee in February 2012

S Mark Barron
Battled injuries so durability is a concern
Surgery to repair torn pectoral muscle in 2010
Surgery to repair double hernia after 2011 season

OLB Courtney Upshaw
Minor character concerns must be investigated
Has been hampered by knee tendonitis

CB Dre Kirkpatrick
Some minor character and maturity issues
Battled injuries and durability is a concern
History of shoulder injuries
History of hamstring issues
Suffered a concussion in 2011

ILB Dont'a Hightower
May have some durability and conditioning issues
Missed most of 2009 season with a torn ACL in left knee
Broke left hand in 2011, which required surgery to repair


In comparison, none of these players were said to have character concerns and their injury history was rated as none of consequence.

DT Dontari Poe
ILB Luke Kuechly
DE Quentin Coples
OG David DeCastro
CB Stephon Gilmore
OG Cordy Glenn
C Phillip Blake
C Michael Brewster


Make of it what you will...

Is it just me, or are people mentioning Michael Brewster again in draft threads for some reason? What's up with that?

 

[robert70x7]

DT Dontari Poe - doesn't show on tape in C-USA
ILB Luke Kuechly - small
DE Quentin Coples - lacks motor
OG David DeCastro - no problems
CB Stephon Gilmore - more of a zone guy
OG Cordy Glenn - no problems
C Phillip Blake - old
C Michael Brewster - got destroyed at senior bowl


Make of it what you will...

I have read the same thing about Richardson on other sites and they are saying it's because he already has 2-3 kids, I can't remember the exact number.

All you have to do for Upshaw is watch the post game of the national championship game.
