Speaking of freak athletes and someone we haven't talked about. Jordan Burch from Oregon. 6'6" 295 pounds. He had 8.5 sacks this past year so you know he did produce at least at a decent level. But the reason I bring him up in this discussion is because he is supposedly an athletic freak. If you watch the fake punt the dude ran, he looks pretty damn athletic. Anyway, I've been thinking of guys that maybe fit some of that Buckner type mold for this defense. And Buckner is like 6'7" 295 pounds.I knew that, just like I knew it was more or less the same situation for Jalon Walker who had 4 of his 6.5 sacks in the two Texas games.
Some college teams have defensive schemes that are just kind of weird as far as putting guys in good positions to pass rush, and Georgia's is probably the best example.
Any thoughts on Burch? I'm sure if he kills it at the combine people will start having more thoughts on this guy. But the size and athletic traits make me think, maybe he would be a fit for DT here in Dallas.
