"Burden was selected by Chicago in the second round of April's draft. He is a bit undersized (his 8.5-inch hands tied for smallest in this class), but he's very young (21) and was highly relied upon and productive during three seasons at Missouri. He's fast with terrific playmaking ability and can align all over the formation. Burden is set to replace Keenan Allen as Chicago's slot man, but there are a lot of mouths to feed in an offense that also includes DJ Moore, Rome Odunze and Colston Loveland. Consistent Year 1 fantasy production is unlikely, so Burden is only worth a late flier."


"Burden went without a catch in the first half before reeling in three passes after the break. The wide receiver was unable to build off of his recent momentum, recording his fewest catches since Week 12 and his lowest yardage total in four weeks. Burden will finish his rookie campaign having caught 47 of 60 targets for 652 yards and two touchdowns while also turning six carries into 37 yards over 15 regular-season contests, and he'll now make his postseason debut in the wild-card round against the Packers next weekend."

"Arroyo was selected by Seattle in the second round of April's draft. A seam stretcher, Arroyo's 10.0 aDOT last season at Miami ranked second and his 16.9 YPR and 12.6 YPT first in this TE class. He also led this class in YPR, YPT, RAC and adjusted catch rate for his career. Incredibly, Arroyo is charted as having zero career drops. The important context here is that Arroyo was a rarely used target (61 in 34 games, 47 of which came in 2024). He has long-term fantasy upside, but will open his career battling second-year A.J. Barner for work. Arroyo is the better pass-catching prospect of the two, so he's a sleeper to consider in the late rounds of deep leagues."


"Arroyo suffered a knee injury in Week 14 and had already been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Colts. He'll now be sidelined for the rest of the regular season, but he will have a chance to return during the postseason."
