STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Burden is a breakout candidate who will lead the Bears in targets.

Silva is bullish on Luther Burden, citing his elite rookie yards-per-route-run (2.7) and the expectation that he will be the Bears' WR1. Silva argues the Bears' defense will struggle, forcing the team into high-scoring games, and notes that coach Ben Johnson has been highly complimentary of Burden's potential.
