Kid is a stud and the runaway best RB in the class. He has all the physical gifts one could ask for what I don't know is if he has the vision and ability to create of a guy like Zeke, Bell, etc. I didn't see that from him in college bur only rime will tell. I like him better than I liked Fournette but not more than Zeke for whatever that's worth.

Just saw him do an interview on NFLN.  He's very well spoken and creates a positive impression.

He's the total package.  Endorsements are on the way.  He's an excellent example of a college athlete, soon to be professional.

I think he may go to the giants. I fully believe they want the next two years to get another superbowl before Eli retires. 

Considering that the 2nd round pick has been traded in the last two drafts & that the Giants have many needs...we'll see. But, it's likely that any team making that might might indeed have Barkley in mind.

I posted the day Penn St lost to Ohio St that he could be the 1st pick, he's the best RB prospect since APete, and you have to go back a long way before AP to find one as good.

 

Hes a physical marvel, just insane power & speed. A 4.41 40 & 41 inch vertical at 233 lbs. Incredible. And the 29 reps in the bench is better then probably half the OL. 

 

All thats great but the key is how good he is in the passing game. He's the best pass blocking back in years & a very natural hands catcher. He's a huge threat in space.

 

Thw only weakness is he's got a little Derrick Henry in that he's always trying to hit a HR, he takes a lot of losses bouncing it outside. He hits plenty of HR's though.

 

The passing game is where he can do some major damage though. He's more then just a check down, when he gets the. all in space he's going to make huge plays.

I have never watched the guy play so who knows he could be a huge bust, but if we did somehow land this guy it seems like it'd be smart to trade Henry. I think 9 Nines has been hoping we'd get Barkley for a while IIRC.
