The blog uses YPA as evidence of arm strength. Look at the ****ing tape. Barkley has a below-average arm by NFL standards. It will limit the routes he can throw and the coverages he can throw in to. Second, the article mentions "too much tape" on Barkley. Smith has just as much tape as Barkley does. Third, the article is completely dismissive of potential/upside. Fourth, this article is written completely from statistics. The writer probably hasn't even watched a USC game this year.
