An interesting prospect who has experience at both CB and safety. At this level he's basically a safety. He's got slightly better than average speed for the position with average length. He looks like a SS at this point and in college showed he is willing to come up and make tackles in the run game. If he pans out like I think he might, this would give Staley huge depth at safety.

Since he plays a soft zone, having depth at safety is a must. Staley's zone concept is basically a cover 2 scheme in the way it's played. He leaves the short zone fairly open with the idea of coming up to make tackles and waiting for an offensive mistake. That passive concept IMO seems to go against the type of players he has like AD and Ramsey who are super aggressive in their style.
 
It's obvious that Staley likes this UDFA DB. This is the 2nd time Juju has been activated. Might push Rapp in time as the 3rd safety with Fuller on IR. I am disappointed in Rapps performance thus far. I also believe Burgess is more of a Nickle prospect than safety.
 
Seems like hes at the top of the PS on the defensive side. I guess with Fuller out it makes sense.

Can't imagine the NFL allowing him to play with a toothpick though.

Was just about to ask if this is the dude with the toothpick.

I love to see opportunities like this. You can practice all you want and evaluate all you want. But shit doesn't matter until Sunday. Some guys are ballers. And just don't show it on paper.

Never know what we may get. Exciting
