FantasyPros Articles on Luther Burden
From the article
If you didn't get the chance to trade for him early in the year, then this might be your last opportunity... Burden continues to be one of the most efficient receivers in the NFL. He has a 27% TPRR (WR14), 2.68 YPRR (WR13), 105 receiving yards after contact (WR4), and 290 yards after the catch (WR5).
STACKED’s take
Burden's elite efficiency and playoff schedule (Bills, Packers, Lions) justify overpaying.
Burden remains a buy-low opportunity even if you have to overpay to acquire him, especially with his bye this week providing another trade window. Despite snap share typically floating below 70%, Burden is one of the most efficient receivers in the NFL with 27% TPRR (WR14), 2.68 YPRR (WR13), 105 receiving yards after contact (WR4), and 290 yards after the catch (WR5). If Kalif Raymond didn't exist (63 fantasy points), Burden would be the WR2 in fantasy points behind only Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Chicago faces Buffalo, Green Bay, and Detroit in the fantasy playoffs—all top-10 fantasy production allowances to WRs averaging 36.6 fantasy points per game with implied totals over 51 points.
