"وأما من سب أحدا من الصحابة فهو فاسق ومبتدع بالإجماع إلا إذا اعتقد أنه مباح كما عليه بعض الشيعة وأصحابهم، أو يترتب عليه ثواب كما هو دأب كلامهم أو اعتقد كفر الصحابة وأهل السنة فإنه كافر بالإجماع"

Wow bro. Pretty harsh statements. There is no doubt there is more than one opinion on this.

What do you think? Put it in your own words.

[taha taha]

Sorry, you need a title so people know what some scholar are saying.
This sounds about right. 

The ruling on condemning the Sahabah has several levels:

1) Condemning all or most Sahabah in matters of religion.
This is Kufur.

2) Condemning all or most Sahabah in worldly matters.
This is also Kufur because it goes against the abundant proofs from Quran and Sunah that they were the best of people. Also, such attacks to the general Sahabah are never free from hatred towards them.

3) Accusing a Sahabi or a group of Sahaba with something which negates the clear Quran, Sunnah or agreement of the Ummah. Such as accusing ‘Aishar RAA of adultery. Or accusing Abu Bakr RAA of hypocrisy.
This is also Kufr.

4) Condemning a Sahabi or a group of Sahabah by attacking them personally. Such as cursing them or using foul language towards them.
This is not Kufur. It is a sin, the size of which depends on the status of the Sahabi being attacked.

Subhanallah
There is not much of a option even number four is a nasty option/opinion.
