Burfict is scaring dudes clean out of the league

It was part of the overall poor attitude/inability to think problem that dropped him from a top pick to unwanted by everyone but the Bengals as a UDFA. Blaming Harrison is a mostly ******** excuse you guys on here just made up to make yourselves feel better.

 In a game against Stanford, Burfict was called for grabbing the facemask of Doug Baldwin, and—after complaining to the referee—charged with a personal foul for unsportsmanlike conduct.



That is what he was benched for, try reading a little before typing. That was in 2010 then there is this from 2011....


With senior cornerback Omar Bolden lost for the season to a knee injury, Burfict was expected to take over as the leader of the Sun Devils defense in 2011,but eventually had a rather inconsistent junior season. Burfict decided to forgo his senior year at Arizona State and entered the 2012 NFL Draft.




I don't see anything there about 2011 being benched for personal fouls....hmmm....says he was inconsistent. He got in trouble his sophmore year...a 19 year old kid had anger issues. Wow, that never happens.....

Then, there is this:

Burfict entered the NFL Combine rated as the No. 3 inside linebacker, behind Luke Kuechly and Dont'a Hightower, but his "disappointing" performance—including a 5.09 sec in the 40-yard dash, slowest among linebackers—caused some analysts to project him as a third day (Rd. 4-7) draft pick. NFL scouts also faulted him for his interview process, in which he blamed the ASU coaching staff for his mediocre junior season. Later it was also reported that Burfict tested positive for marijuana at the combine.

So he slipped more due to his interviews, failing a drug test and bad performance....interesting...I thought it was just millions of personal fouls.

Then he comes to the league and gets mentored by Harrison and becomes more angry. 


If you doubt that Harrison mentored him, you're a fool. All you have to do is go look at Harrison's remarks after the game DEFENDING Burfict. 


Please get a clue if you are going to stick around.
