Well, not really, but compare him to Parmele, and there are some strong similarities:

Marion Barber:
5'11 3/8" -- 220 lbs -- runs a 4.48 -- late round pick (4th)

7.12 three-cone drill.
40-inch vertical jump...
10'7" broad jump...
20 reps on the bench press...

Jalen Parmele: 5'11" -- 222 lbs -- runs a 4.469 -- late round pick (6th)

6.96 s 3-cone...
34-inch vertical jump...
10'5" broad jump...
18 reps on the bench press...

Looks like Parcells/Ireland/Sparano are looking for the 305 version of Barber. In fact, Parmele is the same size but a bit faster!
 
Wow, eerily similar! You could tell that was the thinking when you watch Ireland's presser. He speaks highly of Marian and says he would love for this kid to emulate him and find his "niche" in the league.

Looking forward to seeing him in rookie camp.

oh, wow... I'm in Virginia, away from local tv, so I'm missing any of the pressers they may be holding... I should check and see if they're up on the team website, though!
