Scouting Report: Strengths
- Some teams will prefer him as a 4-3 Will, but Burch has a chance to hold up in the middle and be a good one.
- Burch shows good quickness off the line of scrimmage and flashes the violent hands to win around the edge.
- He’s a technically sound and consistent tackler, breaking down and wrapping up, with the length and power to swallow up ball carriers.
- He has good movement skills with decent range. And he proved capable of holding up in zone coverage and can be used as an effective A-gap blitzer.
- He’s a high-motor player, and he shows good enough hand use, as well as a tight spin move, to win as an edge rusher.
- Burch has the strong core and powerful hands to shed blockers, and he shows excellent instincts with the ability to quickly locate the ball.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Hips are a bit high, arms are long, and waist is narrow, which limits his ability to anchor and turn. Not much of a pass rusher if there is not an open lane.
- . Burch doesn’t have elite take-on skills. He’s not a violent hitter, but more of a grab-and-drag tackler. He’s also limited in man coverage, and Burch won’t be able to run with athletic tight ends.
- Chase speed is below average, and he gets too upright as a pass rusher - needs to play with better leverage.
