      Not yet. No one on the team has said he best trait is remaining calm as players run past you.
      Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

        I liked Thomas as a player... he was just a bit undersized, and didn't have any other special attributes (speed, quickness) to compensate for his lack of size.

        Burks on the other hand, has all of the athletic ability in the world... but his game tape that we can see is just awful. Surely the Packer scouts saw much more tape than we did, but good gravy, the tape we can see is horrific.

        I'm hoping the guy is better than we can see on some of his college tape, but I just don't know how you explain the bad angles, missed tackles, apparent complete lack of instincts??

        It's like he's never seen the game of football played before, and they just threw him out there and said 'run around'. Just a complete train wreck.

          Did you watch him as a safety?

              But is his body responding the way he wants it to?
