You nailed it, and we all see it. I personally am not a fan of Barr right now either, but I hope he steps up. I also thought Fullwood would be better this year

Does Fullwood have arms?  He continues to try to bring RBs/WRs down with his shoulder pads rather than arm tackling.  I thought he learned his lesson against Dalvin Cook last year.

Exactly, he has so much natural talent, so I figured the tackling would have been corrected by now. I also saw Ed Reed style ball hawking skills from him, but instead Jaymon Thomas is taking the spotlight

Barr does seem lost a little bit out there, but he seemed to play alot more this week than he has all year.  My point is why would he leave when he is the next guy in line?  It would be a bad move to transfer, sit out a year and not be certain of his future PT when it seems he will get alot of PT next season in one of the country's best offenses.

No one knows if he's next in line for 2017.  That hasn't been determined yet.  Probably won't be until spring at the earliest.  

He got his feet wet pretty well last year and has taken a BIG step back this year.  At this point, he hasn't earned anything in the realm of a starting job for 2017 yet.

Barr is the frontrunner to replace Adams since he's the backup.

Gonna need that speed

MVS coming in and Adams going to the slot has reduced his role a bit; Adams os the jet sweep/Bubble screen guy. Barr will get his touches next year, too. We have a ton of receivers. Dillon hasn't been on there we just don't really throw it that much on the intermediate areas when he's out there; Wilcox has gotten luckier on those routes.

Regarding Dillon, he has been hurt with that left foot/ankle all season. He's just hobbling out there every game but he's grinding it out

Ah, this explains a lot...I hadn't heard that.  He looks like he's maybe at 90%.  Hope he bounces back.

I hope Barr gets his touches.  But he has to perform.  If we have a ton of receivers, and he's not making plays, his time will continue to be limited.  He's taken a step back here.  That's all I'm saying, no more, no less.  

Dillon playing hurt explains a lot, and Wilcox has stepped up for sure.

Again, all good problems to have.
