  It appears the quarterback play at Alabama won't fall off anytime soon. That's quite a statement considering the recent run of Crimson Tide quarterbacks, but SEC Network analyst - and former Alabama quarterback - Greg McElroy said redshirt freshman quarterback Bryce Young has the tools for the trade. "He's a stud," McElroy said Monday, per 247 Sports. "And there's no denying his pedigree, there's no denying his physical attributes. The guy's unbelievable. Can run around, can create, is accurate, and does a pretty good job of going through his progressions. You talk to anybody that was on that staff last year, they'll tell you he has a really good foundational understanding of how to have his feet where they need to be, when they need to be there. So, he's already far ahead of where he needs to be."

McElroy did, however, have one question that still needs to be answered. "But, here's the but, until the lights are bright and it's your gig, it's still a little bit of an unknown," he explained. "Now, I'd love to have the starting point that he has with the physical attributes and all the other things I just talked about, but can he step into the shoes of a vacated first-round pick in Mac Jones - who had one of the best years we've ever seen at the quarterback spot - that's to be determined. I'm still very optimistic about it, that's for sure." Young was 13-of-22 passing for 156 yards and a touchdown in limited action over nine games last season. - Birmingham News
