O..M..G.

Just found the most fun player to watch in the class. WR, RB, FB, Option QB…all check.

6’3 225 and might run in the 4.3s and has the wiggle of a scat back. He looks like a Byron Jones kind of athlete.

Have a feeling his stock is going to soar after he blows up the combine but would love to have a playmaker like that on our O.

My issue for Dallas, is they never seem to know how to utilize these big 6’5” guys in the red zone lol

Hard to gauge his stock. Production is meh, but its improved every year. So he could be an ascending player. Talent level is ridiculous, and has #1 WR potential if you can coach and you're patient. I think he could be a 2nd round guy. Especially in this class

He’s got some ball skills…seen multiple plays of him going up and getting the ball over a defender. I think he just needs to improve as a route runner but man the ceiling is high.

Production is partially about circumstance.

He only had 60+ catches but keep in mind he also had 50+ carries so his all purpose yards was around 1000.

Id take him in the 2nd, but Id really want to add a vet somewhere. Id think he would be good to start as a #4. Could do some damage against spread out defenses, with a S/LB or #4 CB on him.

If you have a coaching staff creative enough to put good packages in for him he could elevate your offense like early career Deebo or late career Patterson. Current staff I'm not sure he'd be successful... although maybe they'd stop running CD so much and avoid getting him banged up.

I think he’ll probably go in the 2nd bc of the traits I’d just need to know who else is on the board.

Yeah, he’s fun to watch. More of a “go get it” type weapon at this point than a plug-and-play receiver.

Reminds me of a mix between Dez and Coradelle Patterson. Probably an early Day 2 pick.

A creative OC could probably maximize his talents early; we don’t have that here.

He is more of an athlete then a wide receiver at this juncture, will need a lot of development on the next level.

Dallas wouldn't use him right. Savior should get 8-10 carries a game on top of how ever many catches he has...a unique weapon.

Yea…really fun player but I highly doubt we’ll have an OC good enough to maximize his talents in year 1 while he develops as a route runner.

I don’t think he’s a project by any means but will need some refinement.

Still a lot of good WR reps on tape to get excited about.

He isn’t a refined receiver at this juncture, where he might not be the best fit for our offense, especially the one currently run by MM. When I think of what receivers work well with Dak are the Amari Cooper types, elite route runners

Agree he needs more polish but I’d disagree about MMs scheme. It’s so vanilla I think he could easily come in year 1 and handle a lot of the quick hitters Lamb gets.

Slants, crossers, bubble screens, come backs, direct handoffs and go balls. That’s like high school stuff.

That would be how I use Burden as well, but isn’t the west coast more of a timing offense?

Freakish change of direction and quickness for a player that size.

Anybody remember rookie Dez on Punt Returns...

Cordarrelle Patterson...not certain why he never became a great WR but has been an impressive RB / offensive-weapon.
