Wasn't he solid?

Wasnt really anything.     Wasnt completely awful, but never made any kind of impact.     He was just kind of....there.

Also why would he ask to be released into a saturated Safety  market?

He wants to be a traditional safety.   We wanted him to play alot of dimebacker, which he didnt like.    Thats why we signed Mark Barron.

Was he more FS or SS?

Burnett?     He split time with Terrell Edmunds at SS and was used alot as a subpackage player.....which is why he wanted out.       By the end he really wasnt even better than Edmunds as a safety and we were trying to use him where we needed him.    Strikes me as pretty selfish....and I was happy when we first signed him.   

Maybe he will have more success elsewhere.

No and to answer your other question he didnt wanna be used as a lb in subpackages 

He was injured most of the year. Was brought here to be a starter and couldnt stay healthy so our overdrafted rookie became the starter.
