From the video
8.5 points per game and above, he's the only guy to have like less than 60% of the route participation. He was just nuts given how many routes he ran like led the class in targets per out run, led the class in yards per out run, led the class in first downs per out run, led all wide receivers in PFF grade.
STACKED’s take
Elite efficiency on 45% routes; boom-bust floor despite ceiling comps to AJ Brown.
Luther Burden led the rookie receiver class in targets per route run, yards per route run, and first downs per route run, plus led all wide receivers in PFF grade with 8.5 PPG. However, his 45% route participation creates a low sample size concern; he was never a viable best-ball or redraft option this season despite elite efficiency metrics. The source loves his talent but warns his price will be expensive next year and the floor is much lower than ceiling comparisons to AJ Brown, Justin Jefferson, and Puka Nacua suggest—more comparable to boom-bust cases like Kadarius Toney or Christian Watson. He ran only 62% of the routes and an 11.4% target share when Roman Wilson was back on the team, raising questions about whether his routes can scale up.
