Why

  • Luther Burden III is WR25 on our rest of season ranking: 11.5 projected PPR points a game over his 9 games left through Week 17, 2.3 a game above a replacement WR (9.2).
  • Week 8: 12.8 projected PPR points (@ SEA), WR19 on this week's board. That defense allows the 32nd most fantasy points to his position.
  • His target share fell to 13% in Week 7, from 22% in his games before it.

Rest of season figures are projected PPR points a game from Week 8 through Week 17, measured against a replacement level starter at his position. Shares compare his last game with his games before it.

Who to add instead

If you need the spot, the best add at his position is Khalil Shakir (BUF) instead, 9.7 projected PPR points a game rest of season. He drew 82,188 adds in his busiest 24 hours this waiver cycle.
