Luther Burden III

But this is a smaller PPR league, so I have some good options on my bench.

I have Luther Burden, Christian Watson, and Parker Washington, who are 24 to 25 and 26 in ECR.

But I was noticing that both of you have Parker Washington rated higher than the other two receivers this week.

I'm just curious, is it maybe worth switching away from Montgomery to one of those receivers as sort of a, um, upside play? And if so, would you say that's Parker Washington?

Oh.

So it's just one out of the four guys.

Oh, so it's Luther Burden-

Parker

Adam, is Sunday the last day, the very last day that we'll discuss the trade? No, but since you brought it up, the Panthers received Bryce Young.

The Bears received Darnell Wright, Tyrique Stevenson, Caleb Williams, Tory Taylor, Luther Burden, three years of DJ Moore, who then turned into Sam Roush, Malik Muhammad, and Keshawn Elliott.

Wow.

So your starting left tackle, your starting corner, your starting quarterback, your punter, starting wide receiver, three years of a number one wide receiver who then turned into who's now your number three tight end, apparently your starting nickel this weekend, and a linebacker who I think could very well be a- active in helping you out on special teams on Sunday.

He's another part of that trade.

Malik Muhammad playing the ball, part of that trade." [chuckles] Like, you could go on.

"Luther Burden, part of that trade." It, it could go on and on and on.

Kind of like a nightmare sit-situation for the [chuckles] Carolina Panthers.

And so we're actually able to keep up with you.

I also look at this game and it's like it's riddled with like camp injuries, right? We've got Luther Burden missing a ton of time in camp.

We've got Adunze injured now on the Panthers side.

We've got both of their running backs coming off of injury.

Chicago, Carolina.

The one player I don't know about is Luther Burden.

Oh, he's good.

I feel good about Loveland.

But at the same time, Rome Odunze has not been a number one receiver.

Luther Burden, you know, got his feet wet last year, was not a number one receiver.

You know-

Yeah

What does Ben Johnson like? He likes Caleb under center.

He likes play-action.

He likes Caleb to turn his back to the defense, hide that football, make it look like it's a run, and bam, there goes Luther Burden, there goes Romello Duhon, Cole Kmet, right on top of your head, no ditty.

So you wanna make sure that you get, you know, that sets up everything.

Cleve Raymond is the OG in that room.

Luther Burden, if he stays healthy, has the makeup of a number one wide receiver from the affect to the way he gets down to the way he gets down on the field.

Roman doomsday in a, in a league, Matt and Dan, where the 10th pick in the draft is the emergency quarterback for the organization that drafted him two years later.

Hey, this is a you-on-the-clock year for Roman Dunzay.

But earlier in the week, when Ben was talking about, yeah, we don't really know what we're going to do wide receiver-wise because we need to figure out who's available.

You know Luther Burden's going to be available, and so far, he's not on the injury report, and Colston Loveland's not on the injury report.

That's great.

I feel like this could be a Kalief-Raymond game.

They're not using Burden right.

And one of the first drives against Kansas State, they air it out to Luther Burden.

And it was awesome.

So I think you play a little...

But if somebody's offering something that's going to help you, like really help you, not a roster clogger, but somebody who you can get in your lineup and it's really going to help, you know, you might want to consider it.

Like if somebody offered me like Luther Burden for Bowers, I'd do it in two seconds.

And that sucks to say because you're giving up a lot of value.

But, you know, that's...
