Burden's elite rookie efficiency and Ben Johnson's bullish stance support a breakout case.
Ben Johnson, who drafted Burden, is bullish on his stock heading into 2024: "When he gets the ball in his hands, he's a problem child. I am buying Luther burden stock right now. The way he's approached this season, he has been electric." Among rookies with minimum routes/targets over the last 15 years, Burden ranks second in yards per route run behind only AJ Brown, ahead of Odell Beckham. When Roma Doundse missed the final five games of 2023, Burden led the team in receiving yards despite missing a game himself, posting a 3.52 yards per route run—described as "best in the league type shit." His pedigree and explosiveness suggest he should have been a top-10 pick in 2024 had the 2023 season not happened, but he fell to the second round due to Missouri's poor situation.
