Najee Harris: Talent Level In NFL ‘More Fair’ Than Playing At Alabama

Playing at Alabama is a double-edged sword. While it prepares you to be a professional and gets you ready for the NFL, it misrepresents the parity that exists at the professional level. the Crimson Tide’s recruiting is second to none, and they routinely have some of the very best players who enter the league any given year. No NFL is the Alabama of their league.

“At Alabama, we’ve got a lot of guys who could play against the college football world. I’m not trying to say it’s a disadvantage, but it’s a disadvantage”, first-round running back and Alabama alum Najee Harris told reporters today.
