He has an excellent burst off the line and his long legs put a lot of pressure on an OT’s first lateral move. This causes the OT to be off balance. He is good at stacking up the run for the college game, but what I like the most about Vincent is the head games he plays with his opponent. Vincent plays bigger than his size because he is smart, quick and likes to beat you all game long.

Maybe a Chuck Smith type? I hear a lot of good things about Burns, and the biggest negatives seem to be that he doesn't have great size. Well, he seems to have all the size you need to play RDE in this league. He seems like a good player, and he is the ideal fallback in case we miss out on all our ideal choices on Day 1. Looks like a good fit in Round 4.
