    Fantasy Analysis
    Burleson finished with 27 receptions for 240 yards and a touchdown through six games this season before getting hurt. Burleson figures to be one of those receivers you consider late in drafts to add depth to your roster. But with one 1,000-yard season in his career (and it came in 2004) and one season with more than three TDs in his last five you're probably better off gambling on a younger player with more upside. Burleson's a good one-week replacement option to snag off waivers once the season gets going.
