With the fourth pick of round five in the 2019 draft, the Seahawks added a player that many draft experts saw as a seventh-round pick. Some even projected the former Husky linebacker to go undrafted. Those that did like him saw him as another of those classic lunch pail players. You know, the guys who never take a play off, who give their team all they’ve got every game. Ben Burr-kirven is definitely all that, but he’s so much more as well.
BBK is 6’0″, 230 pounds and clocked a 4.56 in the combine. His relative small size and lack of true burner speed pushed him far down most draft boards, if not completely off.
