I thought Burkhead would be a steal for someone round 4 or 5.
As I watched the backs drafted ahead of him I thought "I must not know what I'm talking about!"
Here's how it eventuated.
In draft order
Round 2 Giovanni Bernard 2018 56 att 211 yards
Round 2 Leveon Bell 2018 Did not play due to contract dispute - obviously the best in the class.
