From the episode

I am obsessed with Luther Burden as a talent...he's going in the same range as Luther Burden...We're hoping Burden turns into Jalen Waddell is kind of, kind of my point.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Talented prospect going same ADP as Waddell; source prefers Waddell.

The source is obsessed with Burden as a talent and notes he's going in the same draft range as Jalen Waddell. However, the source prefers Waddell over Burden, suggesting Burden is the hope-for comparison rather than the proven commodity. The Broncos offense has no Colson Loveland or Roma Doomsday competing for targets, meaning Burden's role is clearer.
