Btw, This is exactly what the scouts were saying would happen pre-draft. Ironically, His weakness column? is everything you need for a ILB.Burks athleticism is off the charts if you get a chance look at his combine results, it’s why we traded multiple picks for him.  He ran the same 40 speed as Dix but he’s superior to just about every athletic. trait. He’s not a guy you want to get into a jump ball situation with. Williams is like a fish out of water back there it’s obvious to me anyway.Why don’t we draft another strong safety thumper and let Burks compete for the back up spot to him. His potential there is better it’s a natural position he’s excelled at. He’s fine playing special teams in the meantime.<a href="https://lombardiave.com/2018/07/13/packers-oren-burks-2018/" target="_blank">https://lombardiave.com/2018/07/13/packers-oren-burks-2018/</a>I added one of many articles alluding to him being a difference maker at multiple positions. But all his strengths align in coverage and all his weaknesses align with not being a definitive run stopper.  Notice the“Prediction” of his stats before the season began.. kinda hard to get 3 INT playing on ST.</blockquote>
