Perhaps, but the look on his face seems like a lot of perceived effort for that little bit of weight on the bar. I hope we don't rely on him to lay any blocks downfield..

Of course. we don't know how long they've been holding it. That got to burn the legs

Yeah, I'm rooting for the kid. Hated the pick when they made it, but I hope he gets it figured out.

Yeah, I'm hoping that he get's his act together, too. Just looking at that picture, seemed like he appeared out of shape compared to the others.

A really critical take not having solid info. Also the player 1st with the beard also seems to be struggling,  but you only singled out Burton.

Are you rooting for him or watching to see if he screws up?

I hope I am wrong, but your post suggest the latter.

He’s going to mess up. He’s done nothing to suggest otherwise.

Might have missed it said already, but is that a recent pic? Looks like Trenton Irwin on the end, or have I got him mixed up? (He could even be back in the building for all I know too...we got some cap to burn.)

Honestly, it's not that tough to jump to that conclusion after reading about a guy who showed up to team meetings in pajamas, and was a no call-no show on walk throughs.

Left to Right it's Ryan Rehkow, Andrei Iosivas, Jermaine Burton, Cal Adomitis.

To me, everyone in that picture looks to be struggling except Yoshi, who looks like he's out getting a manicure. That kid has tremendous core strength would be my guess.

love you sunset but to make a determination on a players being in shape or not being in shape on that one picture is a reach

Yep. This place can be comical trying to judge a facial expression. Who knows how many reps into that picture was taken or what part of the workout it was taken.
