Strengths: Experience, technique, football smarts 
Weaknesses: Limited athleticism 

Statline: Four year starter at The Ohio State University and was named All Big 10 and All Academic Big Ten as a senior. 

Technique: Plays better than his measurables because of football instincts and tenacity, but lack of athleticism may necessitate move to guard at next level. 

Known Injuries: Missed all of three games and most of another with a knee injury as a sophomore in 2005. Left shoulder surgery during redshirt year of 2003. 

Combine / Workout Assessment: COMING SOON 

Analysis: Barton claimed a starting spot for the Buckeyes midway through his redshirt freshman season and never relinquished it. He has good size and was able to succeed in the Big 10 on technique, savvy, and determination; that combo platter may not be enough for an NFL tackle, but he could slide inside to guard and find success.
