If we are serious about getting a CB, this kid is almost a can't lose prospect.
Artie Burns, Cb, Miami
6'0 193lbs
"Miami Hurricanes cornerback Artie Burns announced he will forego his senior season to enter the 2016 NFL Draft. Burns, who led the ACC with six interceptions in 2015, lost his mother, Dana Smith, to a heart attack in October, and his father is currently in prison. "Due to my mom's sudden passing and my father being incarcerated, I now have custody of my two younger brothers and my son to raise. It is my responsibility to be the financial supporter my family needs to continue our day-to-day lives," Burns said in a statement. "Also, playing in the National Football League has always been a dream of mine and I believe the time to pursue this dream is now. I feel I am mentally and physically ready. Now that the time has come for me to take the next step in my journey, I will come back to complete my degree from this prestigious university."
I will say it here, this kid will make it in this league. He obviously has talent, but with so much riding on his shoulders in terms of his family, I don't see him failing. Regardless who drafts' thsi kid, they are going t oget someone who is going to give them everything he has.
