Hot damn.. that is what I want in a linebacker.. can't wait to see him in live hitting this preseason.

One player who lost his helmet in the madness was Barrington, who hasn't been bashful all camp. Since drawing the ire of McCarthy Day 1 in pads for his wincing hit of Jeremy Ross, Barrington has been making noise in this inside-running drill.

The drill, he said, is "real football." A few linemen on each side smack into each other with a running back carrying the ball.

"If you're a linebacker, a fullback, a lineman, if you don't love that drill, something's got to be wrong with you," Barrington said. "That just shows how much this team wants to compete and get better and sometimes it gets heated. But I guarantee it's nothing personal. It's all about love and it's just football.

"You have to go in there and get your fit. This is the NFL. So if you half-step, you might get put on your butt. You have to go in there and give it all you've got. But at the same time, you have to be smart and not do anything foolish to hurt your team."

I think this is a player who is gonna be better in the NFL than he was in college. Just like Datone jones.

Hope he makes the team. We need more hard hitting LBs.

Sam Barrington has been really impressive. Being picked so late, he could easily wind up on a list of draft steals from 2013. I cannot see him not making this roster. He looks that good. Just what we needed.

Why?

Because it is the type of attitude this defense needs.. a couple of ass kickers in place of a couple wannabee pretty boys showing up in commercials for their hair or riding off the glory boy's gig.

I'm really looking forward to the pre season games this year. It seems we have a number of late draft choice and UFAs with some outstanding potential. Now, if they can apply it in the games...
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?
