Good hands, can get deep over the middle, breaks tackles for extra yards. 3 year starter who got more productive every year. Lots of clutch catches. Pretty fast, but undersized for a NFL tight end. 6'5-6'6 height with good hops makes him productive in the red zone. A very good pick for a slot receiver in the fifth round. Reminds me of Dallas Clark.
I'll second what Lee and fansince66 have said. Last year he was very, very productive at tightend for us. I'll also add that on occasion he can drop the shoulder and break for a few extra yards on contact.
Barnidge is a very productive tight end with very good hands. He could be a good red zone weapon for Delhomme. Needs to improve blocking. With his size he could play a little in the slot.
