You made a comparison between Barwin a guy who made a good transition to a different position(TE to DE) which the same analysts you spoke of said if he did this for another year in college he'd be a first rounder to Matt Jones who played QB throughout his college career and was an unknown commodity as a WR.

Very poor comparison

You also don't know how well Barwin is going to play DE in the NFL. I'm sorry, but one year doesn't show me he can have a successful NFL career.

Matt Jones had 4.3 speed going for him on a 6'6 frame. Where else was he going to play?

The samething was said about Brandon Albert, but he turned out okay also.
