Kenjon Barner NFL Draft Stock

[JfizzleBlazer]

When do you guys think he will be drafted and how will he do in the NFL??

Personally, i think he could be the best pro rb the ducks have had in a while...

He's not very strong. I doubt he'll go in the top 3 rounds.

Meh. Arian foster went undrafted and is one of the best rbs in the league. But you really dont think he'll be that good? i really think barner could be a sneaky pickup for a team.

Better than average speed & explosion. Not real shifty/elusive, not a power back, doesn't break a lot of tackles. In the right system he could be pretty good, but not close to elite. Probably a 2nd round draft pick at best. Honestly, LMJ still may pan out to be a good pro. It's hardly explainable why SanFran uses a 2nd Round Pick on the kid and won't even activate him for 1 game. I know they have RB depth, but he'll get his chance at some point. I have a feeling people will say "why did it take them so long?"

I don't know...he has not been impressive these last two weeks, but he definitely does have NFL level athletisism. I think he'll be a 3rd rounder.

When you have Kendall Hunter and Frank "The Tank" Gore in front of you, you're gonna get buried. Besides, LMJ can learn the system and can explode whenever he sets foot onto the field.

As for Kenjon, he could serve as a Darren Sproles like scat-back, so I could see the Chargers drafting him, or adding depth behind Shady McCoy in Philly.

The best thing that could happen to LMJ is getting cut and picked up by a team that actually needs/wants him.

As for Barner - if LMJ has struggled to gain playing time in the NFL, Barner is DOA. IMHO, LMJ is clearly the more talented of the two. Heck, Blount is more talented than Barner and look how fast his NFL career tanked!

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Clearly he cannot be an every down back. If I were an NFL teak, I'd look at him more for kickoff returns than carrying the ball.

I'll guess 3-4th round. Like James he's going to have to put on a good 15 pounds or so, so he's unlikely to make much of an impact his first year. But once he does a team will have themselves a guy with the speed and skills to be a real cog.
