Here’s a controversial statement if you’re a Philadelphia Eagles fan. There’s a lot of Ndamukong Suh in Derek Barnett. Stop laughing guys. Come on. This is serious. No, Barnett was never in the running for the Heisman Trophy. Then again, seeing as how Suh plays on defense, some might argue that he never had a serious shot after his final season at the NCAA level of taking home college football’s most prestigious award either.
Some of you are probably also thinking about the fact that Suh’s a five-time Pro Bowl nod and a three-time First-team All-Pro while Barnett’s still struggling to prove that he belongs in the NFL.
