Ideally suited for a Cover-2 or Cover-3 defense that prioritizes strong run defense and allows linebackers to flow downhill and fill gaps, rather than consistently dropping into complex coverage.
Year 1 two-down run stopper and special teams contributor with a ceiling as an early down starter.
Man-heavy schemes that demand consistent, high-level pass coverage skills from their linebackers.
Barrington projects best in systems where his downhill attacking style and run-stopping ability are prioritized over extensive coverage responsibilities, thriving closer to the line of scrimmage.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
