Barkley has sold me a lot more as of late. To me its really close right now and I would be happy with either one of them.
Reality is, that even if the schedule plays out in our favor across the league, we may be taking the 3rd QB in this draft. Not only can a few teams that need a QB finish ahead of us, but a trade is always an option for teams like MIA or WAS. I doubt Pioli trades up for a QB. We can't even be sure we take one at all. Even if we do want a QB the choice may be made for us. I just hope we have a shot at one of them.

That makes sense. I admit, a lot of what I have seen from Barkley was from earlier on in the year. As mentioned, I watched the Stanford game and thought he threw the ball well, but still thought his feet looked slow and his release was slow. I watched another USC vs. an inferior opponent (I think it was Duke) and although the stats probably won't show it, I thought some of his throws in that game were atrocious, especially earlier on in the game. It does make me feel better about him considering he has looked better in more recent games. I didn't see the UCLA game, but saw him interviewed by Rome and it sounds as if he and the whole USC team did well. If anything, by watching USC, I noticed how good those young receivers are....along with Matt Kalil.
