Cosell: USC QB Barkley a fourth-round talent
Matt Barkley - QB - USC Trojans
March 6, 2013 - 4:25 PM ET

NFL Films' Greg Cosell believes USC QB Matt Barkley is a fourth-round talent.

"Number one, he has average arm strength by NFL standards. Number two, his feet are not particularly quick, he has slower feet. And three, he's a little shorter," Cosell said. "So then I go beyond that and think, 'OK, how can he be successful in the NFL when you got certain limitations?' And I think those limitations are the things I notice immediately and it's very difficult for me to look at him as a first- or second-round pick given those limitations and given what I know works effectively in the NFL."
