Has he had any injuries other than the Hernias? That is not considered injury prone if not.

There's also his repeatedly-hurt shoulder...

His other two injuries are both things that happen in the game to EVERY GOOD SAFETY EVER.

The dude is gonna be a very good player and I'd love to have him and Berry as our safeties in today's NFL.

... that shoulder injury + his "tough as nails" attitude towards injuries, cost Alabama the Iron Bowl against undefeated Auburn. Dude was in perfect position for a game-clinching interception, but he physically couldn't bring his arms up to catch the pass from Cam Newton.

Barron bring a lot of positive attributes. I'm just wary about spending a first rounder on him.

I'd honestly rather roll the dice with someone like Brandon Hardin who's projected to go in the 4th than dropping a 1st on Barron if we're looking to address the position.

I usually don't put a lot of stock in the numbers at the combine, but when somebody bombs it like Charles did, its hard not to overlook. He did great in the bench, but chose not to run, made mistakes in the drills and dropped balls. He also had a dui in March. Guy's stock is falling.
