Christopher Burgess Jr. Scouting Summary
Charles Power
02/04/25

Versatile defender who wins with physicality and effort. Measured between 6-foot-3 and 6-foot-4 and around 260 pounds before his senior season. Arm length is average, coming in at below 33 inches. Has a stout build and should continue to add weight once he’s in college. Spent significant time as an off-ball linebacker as a senior, notching over 100 total tackles along with 13 tackles for loss and five sacks. High-effort player who flies around the field. Looks more fluid as a mover as a senior. Showed some dominant flashes in the limited time he spent at defensive end. Maintains good play speed with the ability to strain deep into the play. Overpowers offensive tackles with a strong punch at the point of attack. Physical finisher. Shows flashes of edge-setting potential. Movement skills he displays while working in space should be taken as a positive. Turned in a strong week at the Navy All-American Bowl after his senior season. Has the potential to line up as a big defensive end or grow into a true interior defensive lineman at the next level. May not have elite physical traits, but is a high-floor prospect who could see the field early in college.
