Being on the West coast I got to watch a good amount of Barr's games and I am not impressed. His measureables are great and the guy stood out at times but if he played in the SEC I think he would be slightly above average. IMO he is another overrated PAC10 player, and this comes from a USC fan lol.

I hope they take Barr and pass on Mack.

With no glaring holes, we can go BPA...which is the best feeling on draft day. Especially with such a deep draft. Loomis is the man!

He really played hard in the Philly game.

Anytime opposing fans are dancing because our "cap is stretched", just remember, its not how much you spend, but who you spend that money on. I trust our front office more now than any time in our history.

Btw, we may not have "glaring holes", but we need a Center, WR, CB & LB. Depth at a couple of spots would be nice too. But again, Loomis has earned everyone's trust, so I'm never worried. In fact, I kick back & grab some popcawn & watch the man work his magic. Brilliant.

Before the Champ signing I thought we needed a CB as well but I don't think that's the case now. I think Champ is good, but the signing means the FO and staff sees the potential in White. IMO Champ will start this year but he was brought in to coach White (who was a safety in college). White plays coverage well, his biggest fault is not adjusting/playing the ball when it's been thrown; this is a coach-able mistake.

Corey White never played safety at Samford.

You might be right about Corey White, but again, we could add some depth.
