Morgan Burnett S Georgia Tech #1

Ht: 6'1
Wt: 210
Strengths:
Prototypical size for the position. A natural athlete. Decent speed. Has the ideal skill set of a free safety, but may also have the size/strength to play strong safety. Great ball skills; had 14 career interceptions and has a knack for making plays in traffic.
Weaknesses:
Overaggressive; loves to go for the pick rather than settling for the pass breakup. A hard hitter, but not a reliable wrap-up tackler. Much better in zone coverage than in a one-on-one matchup.
Comments:
Burnett has a ceiling as high as anyone in this year's draft class but he isn't nearly as polished as some of the safeties ranked ahead of him. He is a playmaker, but needs to learn discipline and improved tackling technique. He'll come up with some big plays right away, but he'll also hurt you on occasion. He's worth a second round pick, but would well served to spend a year in a backup role learning the nuances of the position.
