Treylon Burks Fantasy

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Treylon Burks has been drawing attention for struggling to stay on the field during offseason workouts. The No. 18 overall pick, Burks has appeared to have trouble breathing or needing breaks on multiple occasions. His first day at rookie minicamp was most notable, participating only sparingly after leaving the field and using an inhaler. He was present for subsequent practice sessions but did not participate as much as the other wide receivers. The series of limited practices have raised some speculation about his conditioning. It is not likely to be an ongoing area of concern, but something to keep an eye on to see if it carries into training camp. The 22-year-old Burks was the last of six wide receivers taken on Day 1 of the NFL Draft but could have the greatest opportunity to make an immediate impact for fantasy managers.

The Tennessee Titans and first-round wide receiver Treylon Burks agreed to terms on a four-year, $14.369 million fully guaranteed contract with a fifth-year team option on Tuesday. Burks was taken 18th overall and is expected to step in immediately to help replace the production lost when the team traded A.J. Brown to the Philadelphia Eagles. The 22-year-old big-bodied receiver will be highly coveted in dynasty league drafts and he should also be relevant in single-year fantasy formats, but be mindful not to spend too much on him in Tennessee's run-first offense. But there is plenty to like about Burks long term, especially if rookie quarterback Malik Willis turns out to be the real deal.

Tennessee Titans first-round wide receiver Treylon Burks left rookie minicamp practice on Friday because of breathing issues. He had a pair of catches in his return on Saturday, but he also had a really bad drop in the middle of the field on a perfectly thrown pass. It wasn't a great start for Burks, but there's still a lot to like from the receiver from Arkansas, who caught eight passes for 179 yards and two touchdowns against Alabama last November. The 22-year-old is expected to have a big role in his rookie season in Tennessee after the team traded No. 1 wideout A.J. Brown to the Philadelphia Eagles during the draft. Burks should be the No. 2 behind veteran Robert Woods in the Titans run-first offense.
