Scouting Report: Burton is a very active defensive player that’s quick off the edge, has excellent speed and is a big-time hitter. If you’re a quarterback, your head better be on a swivel because Burton is coming after you. He’s versatile too because you’ll see him coming after the quarterback in one play and dropping in coverage on the next.
Burton: "I have a good nose for the ball and a strong work ethic. I'm a smart player. I make good decisions. I could be stronger against the run and there are guys who are faster."
