Standing somewhere between 6-foot-5 and 6-foot-7 and in the 260-to-270-pound range is elite size. Absolutely ideal for a future big-time Offensive Tackleu003cbru003eu003cbru003e- Watching his film, he u0022got away withu0022 throwing a lot defensive linemen to the ground that came in under control. Needs to work on sitting in his stance and staying lower. Foot work shows flashes of being pretty at time, but didn't see any kick slides. The key word for Burns is potential.

He'll be at perennial top-5 in-state program, Rocky Mountain High Schoolu003cbru003eu003cbru003e- Comes from athletic bloodlines. His father Jon was an All-American defensive tackle at Southern Oregon and was invited to play in the Hula Bowl Bowl in the late 90s.u003cbru003eu003cbru003e- Chamberlin is an athletic Linebacker at a 6-foot-2 and 205 pounds. Is getting thicker and more muscle-strapped by the day. Has played everywhere in pre-high school football but think he's a Linebacker in the future.
