Expert Analysis
Felix King | Prep Redzone Scout
Barnes is a big, physical receiver who wins at the catch point. He puts his 6’4 frame to good use as he uses long strides to beat defenders and stretch the field vertically. He knows how to box out defenders to catch contested catches but also just simply out-jumps them as well. His ball skills are second to none as he knows how to put himself in a position to make tough catches. While he may lack top speed he still moves well for his size and can get in and out of breaks quick enough to create some separation. It goes without saying but he is a mismatch in the redzone and is very productive in that area. Barnes future will either be a downfield mismatch threat out wide or he may have a future at tight end creating even more of a problem for linebackers and safeties. All in all, if he can gain some speed and become a crisp route runner, he’ll easily be one of the more highly regarded prospects in the state.
