Love his tackling and plays between the tackles. He should transition nicely to ILB.

Has been arrested four times during his career at USF with all four arrests due to driving with a revoked or suspended license. Was jailed in the summer of 2010 after being arrested twice in a year with a suspended license. Suspended for the Connecticut game this past fall for being cited for driving with a suspended license in late October. A vocal leader along the defense. Good work habits. Graduated in December 2012 with a degree in interdisciplinary social science.

Oh let's not get silly. He's a 7th rounder...I'll be happy if he's a contributor on special teams this year.

He can buy Cedric Benson's car. Just send him a couple hundred bucks via Paypal, and pick it up at the impound lot.

Or, he could hire Ced as his driver. Ced needs work. DJ money won't cut it.

Jerry Jones doesn't like this pick.

WolfPackMember

ok I really like this pick. a 7th rounder I actually heard of. USF gets alot of tallant that slips thru the other Fla schools. actually chose USF over Miami and others. What I really like is his leadership qualities

interesting with KEvin REddick and his 1st team Al-ACC and 18.5 TFL last season still available

Never saw Hawk play that fast even when he was young,reminds me of a sunburned Urlacher on that highlight reel.

I'll bash what Hawk has become as a Packer any day, but the guy was all over the field as O$U.

Yes it's USF, yes he has some antisocial qualities, and yes highlight films show....highlights....but dam----that is one impressive reel.

4/27/137:24 PM

My favorite part of the highlight reel is (1:38) when he hits 8 from Miami and spins the poor bastard 180 degrees and the guy lands on his chin

4/27/1310:46 PM

antiworstMember

Dude tackles like he's in a bad mood.

4/27/1310:48 PM

Salmon DaveMember

Damn. Little dude needs to be careful, throwing other people around all over the place like that. Somebody might get hurt or something.

Love the one where he lands with his foot in the air and still stops the play.

If he works out....wow. This is going to be a defense that offenses are going to HATE.

He clearly views anyone carrying a football like they just punched his mom. Hope he works out. FWIW, Sam Barrington is a great name for a LB.

For a guy who would be an UDFA if it weren't for all the comp picks, this kid hits. Room for him on special teams, where he brings the size/speed ratio that TT loves (and did not really possess himself). Hide him on the PS and develop him. As for the traffic tickets, get him an apartment near the stadium and make him walk. He's a rookie after all.

Reminds me a little of Des Bishop. May not have a perfect game, but has great killer instincts and knows how to lay a hit. Hawk may have the mental side down, but he's not physical and he's not a hitter.

Mama should have named him 'Will'.

Sam "Bamm-Bamm" Barrington.

I was thinking "Sam the Bam," myself. That guy just has to make the team; a name like that can not go to waste.

Do you think Sam Barrington will play with all the injuries.

If things keep going the way they have been, we will see Sam on the field.

Already assuming Sam will be injured when he plays. That's when you know things have gone too far.

10/16/139:31 AM

Only if he knows what he should be doing.

If he gets a sack, then send out the cart. Sacks mean injuries this year

10/16/132:33 PM

Wonder if Sam would be the Sam or the Mike.

10/16/138:25 PM

SAM BARRINGTON "DEFINITELY READY" FOR 2014 SEASON

Mike McGinnis

Though a hamstring injury midseason derailed the rest of his 2013 rookie campaign, Barrington comes in healthy and ready to make an impact during training camp.

In the offseason, Barrington implemented acupuncture, hydrotherapy and pilates into his routine while focusing on different muscles. These types of exercises aren't foreign to the linebacker, who performed yoga in college.

Barrington grew during visits to Goalline's barbecues.

Probably cracked Capers jokes all summer.

Kwadwó, Kwabená, Kwakú, Yaw, Kofí, Kwámè, or Kwasi.

Which one is it GL?

Both?

"In Ghana, Sam Jr. went by "Kofi" — which is his middle name, and also the name given to him because it means he was born on Friday. It is the family tribe's tradition in Ghana to name their boys for the day of the week"

Don't play hardball with us.

I was hatched out of an egg, so you tell me, which is my real birthday? The day the egg hatched or the day the egg was layed. My poor mom was so confused she refused to bestow upon me one of those noble day names.
