Once again you're in over your head Goat. At this point in free agency the pickings have gotten slim and we need somebody if only for depth. Burnett had 2 sacks, a forced fumble and 3 passes defensed in a very limited role. He was a 2nd round pick by the Cowgirls and is a solid player. A lot of LB's are tweeners because they're to small to play DE but they're still productive players. Unless you're AH you're going to have problems bringing down a 260 pound Jacobs unless you hit him low (ask Landry). Unless we bring MW back we need to do something, and this is a young player who can obviously blitz the QB and cover pretty well.
