Durable LSU tackle with rare snap volume and steady pass-protection upside
Barksdale was a workhorse for LSU, logging 897 snaps from scrimmage in the season cited by the Tigers, the most of any offensive lineman, and grading out at 80% or better in 10 of 13 games.[1] He also showed dependable availability and consistency, including playing every offensive snap in eight games and finishing with 34 knockdown blocks in the season referenced by Raiders coverage.[2] His value is durability, steadiness, and tackle versatility, including a move from right to left tackle.[5] He fits best as a dependable, high-floor line piece rather than a flashy finisher.[1][2][5]
