STRENGTHS

 Blitzing Ability
 Tackling Ability
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT
 Backpedal Quickness
He stars on both sides of the ball at running back and defensive back. On offense he is a powerful back despite being only 188 pounds. Barksdale is a north-south runner with good speed. But he projects on the other side of the ball as a safety and shows the total package. Barksdale is excellent in run support and is a huge hitter. He is dangerous on the blitz and shows excellent speed to the football. Barksdale also has good coverage skills.
