[QUOTE="Favre>Rodgers259, post: 831966, member: 10866"] I'll reserve judgement for 2019, which I believe Gute is doing as well. Personally, I feel in 2020 and beyond he could move back to SS and supplement our depth there or just be a hybrid sub-package LB/S guy. Case in point, the entire world cried for WRs this year(except for me of course:tup:), and Gute stuck with his guns from 2018; as he should. You can't just bail on your Draft Class from 1 year ago, they have to be given time to mature and grow. Gute can't just give up on Burks after 1 year, especially after he went down with an injury. However, what I will say is Gute has shown he won't sit idle for too long like his predecessor Thompson did. He took a stab at ILB in the 7th Round with Summers from TCU; along with the UDFA Bolton from Oklahoma. To me this is Gute subtly looking for a replacement without spending hardly any capital at all. If he hits of course he will be a genius and supreme talent evaluator, and if he doesn't 7th Rounders and UDFAs are longshots anyway. But seeing as this defense is pretty much filled out for now, I expect an SEC ILB to come off the board within our first 4 picks in the 2020 Draft if Burks can't deliver. BOLD PREDICTION: Pettine will give Gary ILB snaps in the preseason to see how he looks. With a 4.58 40 if he can maintain his zone, take good angles in the open field, and maybe drop 10-15 lbs to increase his twitch, Burks could be out of a job. [/QUOTE]
