Draft Day Movers & Shakers

Marion Barber 3 ran all over Alabama who pretty much shut down everybody last year. 187 yards on 37 carries versus 96 yards on 31 carries for cadillac and ronnie brown combined. This year's Julius Jones hopefully without injuries I wouldn't mind taking him at 47.
 
Khalif Barnes, Washington, Offensive Tackle -- There's little mystery to Barnes' rising fortunes. It's the law of supply and demand. He's the only legitimate big-time left tackle in the draft, and therefore he's virtually bullet-proof.

:hmmm: Guess Barron gets no love...

That said, don't look for Benson to fall below No. 8 Arizona. Cardinals head coach Dennis Green loves powerful north-south runners like Benson, and likely won't be scared away by the questions regarding his temperament.

Green has a history of drafting guys with questionable backgrounds, but when has Green ever used a power runner besides last year when he didn't have his guys in place? I may be forgetting someone, but didn't Green take Robert Smith and Michael Bennett, both speed backs, in the first? I just can't see Benson fitting in his WCO...
 
you know if we trade down in the first round i would be willing to be that khalif barnes is our wildcard...there is a lot of negatives with barron's passion for the game but not with barnes...could he be the guy we're targeting?
