As we continue our trek through previewing every position group for the 2018 Alabama football squad, we hit what is probably my favorite position in all of football: the safeties. There’s just something about the uniqueness of different player types and versatility of the position that has always drawn in my chess-and-strategy-game-loving mind. Maybe you run a single-high free safety who excels at patrolling the deep center field in conjunction with an in-the-box run thumper. Or maybe you run two split safeties who can match up with a tight end in man coverage or lay the wood on a receiver coming across the middle.
