But based on the few practices that media members have observed in recent weeks, Burgess appears to be positioned to be more than a depth player at this point. He could be right there on the front line, playing alongside Vince Wilfork, Jerod Mayo, Brandon Meriweather and Co -- not as a sub rusher but as an outside linebacker.

Love it.
I think he is our biggest Boom/Bust player. He could be huge for us there if he actually booms, although there is the potential that he busts.
Best case, he's a three down fixture
Middle case, he’s a situational pass rushing Defensive End
Worst case, he warms the bench.
He was making an impact toward the end of last year as a situational DE, so if he can drop into coverage, it’s a real plus for the defense.
If you can play the “Guess who’s coming to dinner?” game, it’s MUCH harder to call out blocking coverage and much easier to hide what you are doing.
