AJ Barner
TE - Seattle Seahawks
2024 Outlook
Tenacious run blocker. His hands are like vice grips. Once Barner has you in his grasp, good luck getting out. He can plow the road as a run blocker. Michigan used him as a puller at times to lead the way. His blocking contributions will define his NFL career. Barner is a tertiary option only for the passing game. He will leak out or run shallow crossers and out routes. With only 4.2 yards after the catch per reception and 0.99 YPRR in college, he won't be a priority option in any passing game. A catch and fall down receiver. Dynasty Outlook: Barner follows Jay Harbaugh from Michigan to the Northwest, as the Seahawks called his name in the fourth round of the NFL Draft. Barner is an underwhelming receiving talent who will cash his NFL paychecks because of his blocking and special teams' play. Avoid him in Dynasty rookie drafts.
