He was a disappointment last year. Had the injury and never saw the field even when he got healthy.

Burks was in perfect position, and one very long distance head fake, and he's running away from Wilson... instead of towards him giving Wilson a whole lot of green grass.
I get it, Gute goes off maximum physical potential... and for his size, Burks is a GREAT athlete... he can move like a big Safety, but to me he's always looked like a better athlete, than football player... as Crosby has tackled with more force (or least he used to), and until Burks gets better instincts, his athleticism can be used against him, making him go the wrong direction like Wilson did.
