Expert Analysis
Tyler Graham | Prep Redzone Scout
The run game for Goodrich is an absolute staple, and Colton fits the system perfectly. His tape tells the tale-he’s a physical powerhouse of a running back that absolutely thrives between the tackles. His strong lower half allows him to drive his knees and continue to push forward. He’s a one cut guy who gets up field and maximizes his touches. Colton is an absolute workhouse who is also a productive LB/DE, showing off his versatility and incredible stamina.

Colton is a massive part of this Goodrich team. We saw it a bit last season during the state championship, and he’s continued his streak of high-effort, physical play on both sides of the ball.
If you need a fullback- here’s your guy. Extremely physical football player. Able and willing to lower a shoulder and fight for extra yards. High motor. Great effort as an outside linebacker as well. Ideal college fullback.
Plus, Colton is a good linebacker. All-around extremely physical player, and someone that colleges should love this offseason.

Another Burnett is up and coming from Goodrich! Watching him in person and on film, I have noted just how physical and punishing he is as a runner. He has no problem being a bell cow back, or just being a lead blocking FB blazing a trail for his teammates.
Colton has good vision that he uses to exploit creases, and then he explodes through. He doesn’t have tremendous speed or insane open field moves, but he has the strength to run through arm tackles, and lower his shoulder to move right through weaker defenders. He does a great job of dragging tacklers that go too high on him and keeps his legs churning. I really like what he can do between the tackles and hope to see him continue to build his speed to make him an all around threat out of the backfield!
