There's plenty of debate over which position groupings are the best, but as for the defensive backs, the answer is obvious for Alabama WR Germie Bernard.
Somehow, not a single Alabama defensive back was among the 35 players named to the Thorpe Award preseason watchlist. That's okay, as it will only serve as further motivation for the unit as a whole. And the guys who go against them in practice everyday, well, they know exactly just how deep and talented the Crimson Tide is on the back-end.
