So the answer is.. we have young players that are developing already in our system.. they actually could be better than Barnidge next year.. two.. Barnidge does cost money.. three he is like 32 and not real fast.. we want young and speed.. not old and slow.. correct ?
Tyler Kroft ran a 4.75 forty. Barnidge ran a 4.61.
I'm sure you're thinking "but that was a long time ago", and you'd be right.
But my point is that 4.75 is pretty slow. We're not losing speed by replacing Kroft.
