Tee Higgins has been ruled doubtful which opens the door for Burton to see his first meaningful NFL action. Well, technically he played 41% of the snaps last week which I suppose qualifies as “meaningful” but this week he should be a full-time player after Burrow said that Burton deserves more playing time. Burton was known for being a big-time player in college with maturity issues that caused his draft stock to slip. The Bengals still used a third-round pick on him (80th overall) and they don’t have much incentive to give Trenton Irwin snaps over figuring out what they have with Burton. A lot of analysts viewed Burton as a late first or early second-round pick based on talent, and if he’s been flashing in practice, there is a chance he could be ready to contribute at the NFL level. This is a speculative play, but if Burton produces, he’ll never be priced near the minimum again. With Chase Brown ($5,900) becoming one of the most popular players of the week since Zack Moss was ruled out, there is a good chance Burton will draw negligible ownership. I’ll use him as leverage on rosters where I decided to not use Brown.
