Barron will be interesting to watch. he has always played well since he arrived mid-2014. Done everything he's asked. Shown obvious versatility.
While he physically requires management and pacing, he's also only missed 4 games in 6 seasons. Turns 29 this fall. He's an important piece for them in 2018 and, like they have smartly with Whitworth and Sullivan, limiting his reps in camp and probably during practice in-season makes sense.
The Rams would probably prefer for other young ILBs like Littleton and Kiser to emerge so they could let him go in 2019 ($7M cap savings next year, $16M over next two seasons). Hopefully he makes it a very hard decision for them.
