Biography:
Bio: Full-time starter the past two seasons and named to both the All-American and All- Conference teams. Played five of fourteen games with the first unit as a sophomore in ‘02.

Positives: Outstanding blind-side protector with excellent size and upside potential. Quickly sets in pass protection, immediately gets his hands into defenders and extends to keep them from the action. Strong in his upper body, displays good hand punch and bends his knees, staying low to the ground throughout the play. Easily controls opponents once engaged in a block, knocking them back off the ball. Effective position blocker who walls opponents from the action. Displays good movement skills, can slide in space and fluid shuffling out to protect the edge. Blocks down or engulfs opponents. Keeps his feet moving and anchors in pass defense. Easily adjusts picking up stunts or blitzes.

Negatives: Tries to outguess defenders and gets beat. Lazy with his hands. Must make better use of blocking angles and learn to play with balance. Does not play with a nasty attitude and by no means a dominant drive blocker who opens big holes for the running game. Work ethic has been questioned.

Analysis: Possessing a tremendous amount of natural skill, Barron possesses all the physical traits necessary to be an early pick and a productive left tackle in the NFL. Before any of that will happen he must pick up the intensity and tempo in all areas or will never reach the level of achievement scouts think he is capable of.
