Spencer "Didn't Block Chris Jones" Burford-OT/OG-UTSA, 4th Round 2022 Draft | Page 35

Phoenix49ers · 2022-04-30T10:30:51-07:00

I could watch UTSA LT Spencer Buford run-block all day long. He's constantly trapping or going to 2nd level to knock out LBs. Here he goes 20 yards downfield and plants his guy. Solid in pass pro, as well, nice lateral movement. Could play OG or OT. #SnapScout22 pic.twitter.com/X92yGFB4ey— Chad Reuter (@chad_reuter) August 21, 2021UTSA RB Sincere McCormick time!LT Spencer Burford is an interesting player too. 1st 4-star recruit ever brought in, 3yr starter at LG/LT. Turns 21 years old next month. pic.twitter.com/p224xBcRdn— Ben Fennell (@BenFennell_NFL) July 1, 2021Spencer Burford was a four-star recruit out of San Antonio's Wagner High School before becoming an all-league brawler on the offensive line for the Roadrunners. 🔗 https://t.co/hhTIfyTsgh#BirdsUp 🤙 #210TriangleOfToughness pic.twitter.com/soDyzAcGKJ— UTSA Football 🏈 (@UTSAFTBL) March 24, 2022

Man people thinking Burford can handle Tackle. He can't even handle Guard covered up. Our season will be blown up on the first play. You guys are being completely unrealistic. He sucks. Awful awareness and instincts. Purdy would be lost for the season on the first play. You can't put him in at Tackle. Season over if you do.

If he played tackle on both sides in college and that was his natural spot

then switch to guard and just now getting reps in practice

Chris Jones is reading about it, hoping he sees Barford at tackle again and again

Renegotiated his contract so he can be swing Tackle. Now that's funny. If he's our swing Tackle the season is over.

I hear he is more comfortable as a Tackle.

How does one go through life being so dramatic about inconsequential things?

So you don't think a young player can get better? SB started a few games as a rookie, so there must be something there.

I doubt he's the same player after a few years of experience, he may shock everyone.
