The problem is fit and footing. Burks ran 77.9% of his routes outside in 2025 but projects strictly to the slot in the NFL, and Shane Steichen's two- and three-tight-end leanings squeeze undersized inside receivers. Next on the depth chart after him: Darius Slayton. Full outlook

Deion Burks Rest-of-Season Outlook
depth WR for deep leagues only
Preseason Projection vs. Reality
Our Take After Week 4
Through 2 games he's WR144 at 0.7 PPR points per game.
He's WR2 on the depth chart, so his value depends on the players ahead of him.
The next favorable matchup is the Commanders in Week 4 (1st against WRs).
Read our preseason outlook (June 2026)
Published June 17, 2026. Kept for reference; the take above replaces it.
A seventh-round rookie out of Oklahoma, Burks arrives as a 254th-overall flier whose calling card is pure juice: a 4.30 forty and the shiftiness to turn screens, drags, and underneath looks into chunk gains. He cleaned up his hands late in college, trimming his drop rate to 3.1%, and finished second on the Sooners in catches (57), yards (520), and scores (4). The athletic profile is real; the size and a 36.8% contested-catch rate are not.
The problem is fit and footing. Burks ran 77.9% of his routes outside in 2025 but projects strictly to the slot in the NFL, and Shane Steichen's two- and three-tight-end leanings squeeze undersized inside receivers. He has to beat out Nick Westbrook-Ikhine just for WR3 reps, and his ADP near 327 reflects that. Stash him in deep dynasty formats and leave him alone in redraft until a role materializes.

What is Deion Burks's fantasy outlook for the rest of the 2026 season?
