117 tackles / 1.5 sacks / 6 forced fumbles / 1 INT / 1 TD

Alec had some rookie moments, but 6 fumbles and an INT? What? That's sick for a rookie!

I think Alec has the potential to be amazing going forward. His athleticism is off the charts.

Me; a "B". But can see some "A's" in his game.

Once (if) he learns to shed blocks I will give him an A. It's not even a matter of shedding blocks to make more plays himself but to affect more plays by remaining a factor.

I give him a solid b. He has the potential to be a pro bowler. And I could see him possibly taking the reins from JL at MLB when his career winds down

I gave a "B" but I would think it would be a High "B". While he was a rookie and made mistakes....he was solid for the most and showed us what could be..... I look forward to a solid soph year......

I give him an A. He was a rookie, so he did all he could have done. Hopefully he improves next year instead of doing a Jenkins or a Givens.

I give him an A when factoring in he was a rookie. Otherwise it would be a B grade. Learning how to handle the NFL is hard and he put up some fantastic numbers while doing it. There were some lapses and his run D was pretty average at best, but I expect him to improve.

I gave him a B, but for a rookie, it's an A. He exceeded my expectations honestly.

A from me. Hopefully he can continue to grow as a pro. He was a bit raw and certainly has some trouble getting off blocks, but, with a full year with NFL trainers ect I expect him to be back stronger next year. I really think this guy ceiling is like a top 5 LB in the league. Very exciting player with plenty of room to grow. This front seven is so close to being very special.

The scary thing is Even though he got over 100 tackles.. I saw him miss quite a bit of tackles this season. Imagine what he can do if he improves his angles and makes those tackles. Wow. And he was inches away from a pick six a couple weeks ago. Future is bright for this guy.

B, he did come from Georgia after all so will always lose a grade for that.

In all seriousness very happy with him, hopefully he'll keep on improving.

I'm giving him an A for the same reason that many others did. His game was a B but as he was a rookie I'm grading him on a curve.

He started out a C/B even for a rookie. But by the end of the season he was playing A for a veteran. To me, it's an easy A especially given he was a rookie and does not have a long history of playing LB. He's going to be special.

AO has an innate ability to strip/fumble with that tomahawk chop that is engrained in him, and his long arms tip passes that you don't recognize until you watch the reply (like Taint Sunday or the 4th down pass in Houston).

The guy has special, SPECIAL skills and is going to become a great LB for the Rams.

Very true. Alec's tackling style is very aggressive and he's always making it difficult for the ball carrier to protect the ball.

No need to really add my two cents since it's all been said but what the heck, I have a few cents left after blowin it all at the sportsbook in the damn Hags game.

The kid had an outstanding rookie year when you think about his contriutions from day one. He learned on the job and got better as the year went on which is exactly what you would expect from him.

A - very solid rookie season, can easily become one of the best LBs in the NFL if he keeps it up.
