Comments on: Kevin Burnett cashes in with the Fins http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/07/29/kelvin-burnett-cashes-in-with-the-fins/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Sat, 25 May 2013 00:57:58 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: dwnhillwhaler http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/07/29/kelvin-burnett-cashes-in-with-the-fins/#comment-1162392 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 15:20:24 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=143465#comment-1162392 “someone pls explain what makes andrew luck so good ??? and why he will make it in the nfl ???”

-physical ability, footwork, arm strength, work ethic and oh yea intelligence. his cognitive ability to make decisions is off the charts, the ability to read the field and make the right decisions in milliseconds. this is a quality some recent highly touted qb s (j russell, leinart, v.young) are missing and the results are palpable. Luck stayed at Stanford, forgoing a guaranteed number 1 overall pick to finish an architectural degree. Cam Newton ran from college (NCAA punishment) so fast there was one of those cartoon dust clouds in auburn’s shotgun slot. so take this information however you want

The critics and scouts have said he is spot on in all categories as john Elway when he came out of college. while there are no sure bets in the NFL Luck is the closest thing. You can counter with the age old ‘he hasnt played one down in the pros yet’ buuuut the facts i gave you are not “hes a winner” or a “champion” or any of that garbage that got Tebow and Young roster spots. but the same qualities that went overlooked when Tom Brady slipped down to round 6 (oops)

Burnett is a playmaker; maybe not the kind of plays that make ESPN, but they are the kinds of plays that win football games.

NO, DON’T LOOK AT THE NUBMERS! Just…you know…ask HIM.

Huge, huge, HUGE upgrade for Miami.

You do understand that the 10 million is over five years right? Please explain to me how $2 million guaranteed per year is overpaid for a good linebacker in the NFL.

Teams have no choice but to spend 10′s of millions of dollars to meet cba requirement of spending 99% of the cap money available.

With this move they will fight it out with the Bills to stay out the basement in the AFC East. They will lose.

Crowder had 2.5 sacks, 3 forced fumbles, and 1 forced fumble HIS WHOLE CAREER.

Dolphins got a huge upgrade at ILB. I like the move.

Glad the Fins finally got rid of that loudmouth Chowder. Hopefully Burnett is an upgrade, but the ILB FinsFans really wanna see in action is A.J. Edds

Although I agree, i do want to see Edds. He is more of a passing situation LB. He was highly touted as a coverage LB and Burnett should see most of the action.
