… Green has really made some strides, and the free safety position really seems to fit his physical skill set. Saban called him out repeatedly this past Spring for his stellar play, and you don’t get that recognition from Saban just by being another face in the crowd.

I doubt he is as good as Rashad Johnson for us this year, but he’ll be pretty dang good, and he may very well be one of the better safeties in the league. The fact that he likely won’t be considered one of our defense’s “best” players says more for the quality of the rest of the roster than it does to denigrate Green.
