He averaged a historic 2.69 yards per route last season — the best mark by a rookie WR with 50+ targets since Odell Beckham Jr. back in 2014... Give Burden last year's 0.56 PPR points per route on Moore's 558 routes, and you get 310.5 PPR points. That would have ranked fifth among WRs last season.

Burden's historic 2.69 YPRR and Moore's departure project him as a top-5 WR.

Despite a recent groin injury, Luther Burden III averaged a historic 2.69 yards per route last season—the best mark by a rookie WR with 50+ targets since Odell Beckham Jr. in 2014. He didn't get enough playing time to be a real fantasy factor, but that is set to change this season. D.J. Moore's departure leaves behind 558 routes; applying Burden's 0.56 PPR points per route to Moore's 558 routes yields 310.5 PPR points, which would have ranked fifth among WRs last season.
