Film Notes and Highlights
Although Graham Barton played at a high level at left tackle, center will likely be his home in the NFL. Barton’s technique, toughness and athleticism are exactly what teams will look for in an early starter with Pro Bowl potential. He has quick feet and footwork, displaying good straight line speed in the run game. Barton started four years at Duke in former offensive coordinator Kevin Johns’ scheme. The highest ranked recruit in the Class of the Blue Devils four years ago, he earned Freshman All-America honors at center in 2020 and started 34 games at left tackle over the past three seasons, earning All-America honors in 2023. – Cesar Fuentes
