Hall Of Famer
I think Darian Barnes was brought here for his leading blocking skills, his aggresive mentality, and his special teams play. I did see when he was arguing and looked ready to fight yesterday against one of Atlanta's defenders and I saw the play where Barnes ANNIHILATED and flat out DEMOLISHEd Keith Brooking on a lead block that I do believe lead to the Ricky Williams 23 yd TD. Barnes definitely has intensity which is something we have been lacking on offense, he's not a really good receiver like Heath Evans was but he is a GREAT Special Teams player and makes some very nice tackles (Especially during the Super Bowl for Tampa Bay) and he's a pretty good lead blocker and could even be used for short yardage situations but we don't need him for that because we have Ricky, Ronnie, and Morris. Darian Barnes is a TRUE BLOCKING Fullback and I think Saban brought him because he's also a great Special Teams player as well.
