Boone is a true sophomore this season, while Barton is a fourth year JR. It is true that Boone really blossomed this season, he still has things that he needs to work on. If you watch the 54 yarder that Beanie took to the house, Crable ran right around Boone into the backfield and could've had himself a nice TFL.
Boone is in the same boat as Gholston. If those two players become even more physically imposing and increase their levels of production, they would become 1st round picks at some point. I just don't see Boone being on the same level as Long, Baker and Thomas yet.

I hear ya...I just have heard that Boone is a likely candidate to be a part of the "Juniors leaving early" discussion this time next year.

From what I've seen of Baker, I don't see him being on the same level as Long or Thomas or Blalock.

Because of o-line depth or because he isn't panning out as a TE?

I like the move. We have a junior and sophmore playing well at the position and we have a verbal from another this year. Give him the year to learn the position and bulk up so he can be a contributor at the position next year as a sophmore. |
