Good Brian Burns video

I think he's going to be a stud, he's got the right mindset:

Brian Burns Work Ethic

Quote

Burns watches film of himself, his opponents and his role models constantly. He also records everything he does on his own and watches the film after for 20-30 minutes to improve how he practices. He’s a film junkie for all the right reasons.

Physically off the charts and a film junkie?  Love it

NFL teams told Burns he needs to improve his run defense, add weight to his lower half, improve hand placement and develop a speed-to-power move – a bull rush. He’s attacked the criticisms head-on, training watching film every day.

Responds to criticism well?  Love it

 

Excited to see how he develops for us.

i'm excited about him. noticing that a lot of these sacks are arm tackles that someone like Big Ben will rip through with ease. definitely needs to put on some strength in the NFL, showing up 30lbs heavier at the combine was a good call.

His change of direction looks really good on a couple of those plays.

I was very impressed (of course, this was a highlight video) with his jump,  his instincts--when to slow play, etc.  He does not seem to take wasted steps. But that inside spin move was bold--he seemed to have contain, and the worst thing he could have done would have been to let the OT get his hands on him.  He did not, and had the speed to get back outside to the QB.  That play was pretty incredible, although he will never get away with that in the NFL---showed his athleticism.

    • Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
    • my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.
