I agree that he needs to be prevented from going to the Eagles. That being said, I'm not sure Barrow is substantially faster than Trotter. I think the main difference between the two linebackers is upstairs - Barrow is a student of the game whereas Trotter is far more instintive. That's part of the reason Trotter hasn't fit in (when he's been healthy).
