Calvin Barnett | DT
Hometown Tulsa, OK
High School Booker T. Washington High School
Height 6'3"
Weight 290 lbs.
Barnett can be a disruptive presence in the trenches. He has good size and combines that with good quickness. He can get moving and crash the backfield. He has a nice quick swim move that he is able to utilize when blockers lunge at him. His ability to pretty consistently get off the ball before the man in front of him makes him tough to block, but he is also physical. Flashes the ability to generate power from his lower body and can take on a block and hold his ground. Flashes the ability to use his hands to separate. He can be tough to move off the ball and does a good job of being able to get into the gap and work down the line laterally. He needs to be more consistent with his hands as he can lose them at times. He also needs to watch his pad level as he has a tendency to quickly rise up. While his quick swim move can be exciting to watch he is leaving himself exposed and in general he just needs to be sure to play lower at times. When he keeps his pads down he can be tough to contain when combined with his size and quickness. He has a good motor and pursues to the ball. Displays solid speed for his size. Quickly changes directions adequately. His ability to get off the ball allows him to be troublesome as a pass rusher as he can beat his man with a quick move. He can also bull his way back. Barnett has some coachable things he needs to fix things that he can probably get away with at the high school level, but will need to adjust at the college level. Overall though a good defensive tackle prospect.
