Anthony Barr will be racking up some frequent flyer miles over the next two weeks.

The UCLA linebacker has visits with the Cowboys, Vikings, Steelers, Falcons and Eagles, a source told FOXSports.com.

Barr, who had 23.5 sacks in two seasons playing on defense, is one of this year’s most intriguing prospects because of his unique blend of size and athleticism.

The 6-foot-4, 250-pounder has generated plenty of interest since improving on his 40-yard dash and bench press at his pro day in March.

Never one to lack confidence, Barr told FOXSports.com in late February that he "absolutely" should be the No. 1 overall pick in the draft, and since then he hasn't budged at all.
 
"I'm fully confident in my abilities and what I'm capable of doing, so I fully stand by that,” Barr said in March. "I think I'm the best player available, and with saying that comes a lot of responsibility."
