Expert Analysis
Alin Edouard | Prep Redzone Scout
Barnes is a physical, assertive defensive back who plays with a clear edge. He thrives in tight coverage, using strong hands and body control to crowd receivers and disrupt timing right off the snap. His lateral quickness allows him to stay attached through short and intermediate routes, and he doesn’t lose balance when changing direction. Barnes shows impressive ball tracking downfield, locating it early and positioning himself to make a play rather than just settling for a pass breakup. In run support, he triggers quickly and finishes tackles with authority, showing no hesitation stepping into contact.
