Vontaze Burfict as our MLB next year...



With our switch back to the 4-3, similar to a great NT in a 34, i believe a good 43 must have a beast at middle linebacker, all the good 43 D's have a probowl caliber player at mike. Guys like Urlacher who call their defense are so important to their teams. We had an immense Mike in Al Wilson a few years ago and next years draft will plenty of excellent options at the position with Mante Te'o and Luke Keuchly but my favourite is Vontaze Burfict, He is just an incredible player, he plays with such intensity and such a motor, he has incredible speed and athleticism and even better instincts for the position. He has the potential to be 10 year all pro in my opinion and the value of a player like that to a defense is immeasurable. I realise a lot of people will think that im being ridiculous bringing this up now when Vontaze isnt even eligible for this years draft! My point here is that I do worry though that if we pick up a Martez Wilson or Greg Jones in this years draft that we might overlook MLB next year and miss out on a such an incredible Collosal player in Burfict. He could be the leader of our D for years and id love to have his intensity levels on our team. He's projected to be a high first round draft pick in 2012, ...any thoughts?
