Your new safety Mark Barron vs Cardinals

Under the Lights: Mark Barron

BOOM!!


Look out over the middle for years to come. I hope we lay out Peyton and his WR's this week.

This guy is big enough to play weakside LB and fast enough to play safety and he BRINGS THE LUMBER in every stick. With he and MacDonald in the safety spot, that is one helluva badass pair. SO, we are making some excellent progress on D and with Chris Long due back in the next 20 days or so, this D is going to be downright scary.

I'm kind of liking this kid to! Didn't pay that much attention to him when he was drafted. Our secondary has improved and IMO we didn't give up that much to get him.

Yep with McCleod developing nicely and E.J.Gaines and Roberson coming along in conjunction with JJ and Trumaine Johnson our secondary is really looking badass. Our next area of need is obviously LB on D and O-line, QB on O.

Think about the Seattle secondary for a minute. Now the safeties. Kim Chancellor and Earl Thomas could very well get replaced by Barron and McDonald as the best safety unit very soon.

These 2 need to stay healthy and will be making hits for years.

Barron and McDonald are 6'2 and 6'3 215-220 and they both can stick

 

[Retroram52]

Don't you know it SJ76 on both posts. Man, I am getting stoked just thinking about what these guys are going to do and just like you stated, if they stay healthy... ...OUCH for the rest of the league.

Only issue I see is that neither Barron or TJ (or McCloud for that matter) are above average cover guys. That could be problematic. Who knows maybe they work on putting 15 pounds on Barron and he plays WOLB instead of Dunbar and we draft a cover safety to pair with TJ....

I've been saying it for years, we needed to get away from the 5'10-5'11 guys that we always seem to have. These guys might not be as fast as some of the smaller guys, but they can still break up passes and hit guys with their size alone!
