Hey, say what you will, but Barrett is a prime Cover 2 safety. He's one of those players whom I'm not sure may ever make a Pro Bowl but could become an indespensible cog in the defense. He's one of the "known quantity" SS's in this Draft.
He's fairly versatile, because he's a particularly good safety but he can play nickel competently and can even play up to the LOS well with his size. And I do love his speed, and yes, he definitely does look that fast out on the field, so I don't know where you're getting that from.
