Free-Agent Setup: 49ers can keep stars, but will they?
Tim Barnes
strengths
Stocky center despite his height, using his large midsection and leg strength to anchor and prevent nose tackles from pushing him into the quarterback. Gives help to guard or tackle if uncovered. Run-blocking looks like his best asset despite playing in a spread offense. Comes off the ball hard and strong, capable of moving smaller defensive tackles with ease. Stays on his man throughout the play, keeping his arm extended into his chest to keep separation. Consistently takes "MIKE" linebackers out of the play with effort and strength. Strong leader on and off the field since his high school days and well-liked by his teammates.
weaknesses
Not an exceptional athlete. Must recoil more quickly, get his hands up and move his feet to stay balanced against NFL defenders. Feet tend to be in cement after initial contact, when pass blocking; quicker defenders can swim and run around him to get a secondary rush. Footwork to second level is only adequate, won't be a force downfield. Has had labrum repair surgery on both shoulders.
Earned numerous All-State, All-Conference and All-District honors during his career at Pettis County Northwest High School in Hughesville, Mo.
Excellent all-around athlete who was a four-year letterwinner in basketball and a two-year letterman in baseball, in addition to his exploits on the gridiron
