Who do you take in round 3? (Wish List)

looks like our type of corner

At first I was like, "this sucks" but upon reading more, I like the pick. He got a 41 on the Wunderlic. Hard hitter, local cat. I dig it.

Yahoo sports has " Barnes was on his way to a possible 1st rd pick "before he hurt his shoulder .

Love this guy, CB Barnes
Smoot , any idea what he ran at his pro day ?

Someone tell me about Kevin Barnes

I'm still not sold this guy. Why not D.J. moore? He's better.

He could def step in as the 3rd corner. He'd probably be better than Smoot off of the bat. He's a lot bigger than Smoot too.

Missed most of his senior year at UMD because of a shoulder injury. Other than that, he's really fast and I think he has decent hands. I'm a big UMD fan with season tickets and I remember liking him as a player, but I can't remember too much more about him.

Nice. I was actually eating lunch when I saw the receiver barf up his.

I've never seen someone vomit after a big hit.

Kevin Barnes Grade- 70

Height-Weight-Speed 3 Good height and adequate top-end speed but below-average bulk for frame.

Durability 4 Suffered a season-ending shoulder injury during the seventh game of the season.

Character 2 Member of the 2008 Terrapin Council, the team's leadership committee. A sociology major who graduated in December of 2008.
Defensive Corner specific Traits
Recognition Skills/Toughness 3 Shows tremendous instincts. Appears to understand route progressions and how receivers are trying to attack the coverage. Good effort on every play but needs to be more physical and his shoulder injuries raise concerns about upper body strength.

Closing Burst 2 Quick feet and good short-area burst. Possesses good recovery speed.

Fluidity 4 Shows some stiffness in his hips and more effective dropping into zone coverage than is matching up in man coverage.

Ball Skills 2 Can elevate over the top of receivers and get hands on football without making contact. Hands are on the smaller side but he still does a good job of snatching the ball out of the air.

Run Support 3 Willing and effective tackler but takes far too long to shed blocks and needs to develop a mean streak.

I think he'll be a solid player, but 1) DJ Moore is better and was available, and 2) why wouldn't we go OLB or OT???
