    I hope he makes 439 bazillion jillion dollars in the NFL, he's as good as I've ever seen in a Tennessee uniform, and that's saying something. He's in the conversation with Cafego, Sufferidge, Atkins, Majors, White, Berry, Manning and others as all time great Vols.

    He is definitely in the upper pantheon with all the greats. His lean coming off the blocks is wicked and as long as he can stay healthy, he is a) going to get a ton of holding calls for his defense, b) is going to get a ton of sacks and tfl's and c) is going to make a lot of left and right tackles have ulcers the week before they play whichever team (*cough* dolphins *cough*) he ends up on.

    Ha. Belichick will end up with Barnett and then pick up the next Wes Welker in the 5th round in Hunter Renfro.

    Cowboys trading up with a Romo deal would be best for business.

    Taking Garrett over Barnett is idiotic and that isn't even my homerism coming out.

    Sometimes I wonder what it is Garrett has done that I missed because I don't get the hype. I guess the hype is just 100% from his freak stature.

    Always banged up, doesn't produce against top tier talent., which is all he is going to see in the NFL.

    Damnit, I read it 4 times and still missed it. I supposed I have subconsciously trained myself to skip over his name.

    Recruiting ratings maybe? It's been like this since the start of their freshman seasons.

    Measurables get you drafted high, ability makes you an all pro.

    Garrett is better in one category, Barnett is far better in the other.
