Burns got 5 INTs in 6 games....dude is a baller, except for that TD catch..he locked down the WR.....NFL Scouts already raving about his Athletic Ability, size, and Speed.... wouldnt surprise me one bit if he left after this year.... Thoughts????

It's not a question if he is even leaving. He just had a kid and he is balling this year
 
I love Artie Burns, but those picks have come against Bethune, FAU, Nebraska and VT. None have a QB worth anything.

Quit trying to discredit this man... We haven't seen a cornerback with over 3 picks before Tracy and burns in a season in over 7 years let that sink in... Probably longer than that....

Dude is not a top 5 CB. Please stop! Maybe top 5 potential but Va Tech QB sucked!

He isn't, but he will boat rape the combine and will be at least a 3rd round pick. 6'1 210 legit 4.45 speed along with long arm for a DB means pay day. Bush is also gonna make a bunch of money at the combine. The best of the bunch as a player is Elder though, but he doesn't have the measurables.
 
He's been ballin for a couple years. Not only will he shine at the combines but he also has shown that he is a physical dude

Easy there. He's 6'0" 195 with low 4.5 speed.
 
He's having a good year though. Couple of the picks were gifts perhaps but you can't fault him for that. His only job is to make a play in that situation and he has.
 
Any of these dudes leave early, it's a mistake.

Win something, first. If not games and championships, at least be a finalist for the Thorpe award.

If this dude isn't projected to go 1st or 2nd round, he should stay, IMO.
 
Burns, Elder and Bush all have first round talent but coaching will put them all third or later. If these guys had proper coaching they wouldn't be getting beat by average WRs weekly. But in this defense you only see flashes. If Nick Saban had our secondary they would be household names.
