I definitely haven't prioritized him in drafts, and I'm the lowest on him in our Fantasy Life ranks... it's hard to imagine Burden earning a large share of the targets in a competition with Loveland and Odunze.

Berry lowest on Burden; doubts breakout despite playoff role concerns and target competition.

Matthew Berry is the lowest on Burden among Fantasy Life ranks and hasn't prioritized him in drafts despite modest rookie production (47-652-2 receiving, 60 targets). While Burden showed improvement in the final eight games post-injury (45 targets, 481 yards, 10.9 yards per target—No. 8 WR in efficiency), Berry cites concerns: Burden took too long to overtake Olamide Zaccheaus (who out-targeted him 65-60 for the season), and in the playoffs he was still the No. 4 option in the pass game with only a 14% target share (44 Utilization Score). Even with Moore and Zaccheaus gone, Berry doubts Burden will earn a large target share competing with Colston Loveland (29% target share) and Rome Odunze (14% target share), making a breakout unlikely in 2026.
