Rookie role unsustainable; lacks red zone upside vs. peers.
Luther BurdenWR
Luther Burden did not make any plays in the playoffs and cannot maintain the role he had in his rookie year as the offense will not use him that way. If Caleb Williams improves, his easy button touches will decrease and his per-route efficiency will change significantly. Burden had only 8% red zone target share in his rookie season, with 30% of his targets being screens rather than traditional drop-back throws into the end zone. Matt Harmon notes that the upside belongs to Roma Dun and Coulson Loveland due to their proven red zone scoring ability from college tape, in contrast to Burden's limited red zone involvement and screen-heavy usage.
