Barrett is an incredible physical specimen at 6'2", 225 pounds and has great speed for a safety. Barrett is good in press coverage and does a good job using his hands to reroute receivers. He has good range and can cover the deep half of the field, showing this with his 7 pass deflections during the 2007 regular season. Having the size to line up in the box and stuff the run from the safety position, he is aggressive and can make plays at the line of scrimmage. He's a high energy player and coaches will love his motor. He has been called a corner in a linebacker's body at 230 pounds and 4.5 speed. He is a reliable open field tackler that flashes the ability to deliver the big hit. Barrett reminds me a lot of Roy Williams of the Cowboys making huge hits, but like Roy Williams, he has a tendency to get beat on the deep ball and by play action. Barrett does a great job of timing blitzes and takes the shortest path to the quarterback; je is a ball hawk and tries to strip the ball when in a trail position. Barrett has been a solid performer for the Sun Devils. He could use great workout numbers to make his draft stock skyrocket.
