gcmmidwest 98 Posted October 30, 2013 he is on waivers & he is due back week 10 ...,what do you expect from him wr2? wr3? #'s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcmmidwest 98 Posted October 31, 2013 nevermind i'll just answer my own question ...,he will put up consistent wr3 #'s with occasional wr2 #'s he's better to have than any name listed on the wr scoop & play list. Before he got hurt he put up no less than 6 targets or 6 catches. due to bye weeks i'm snookered with having to start dookie wr's & will pick him up off waivers next week I expect blackmon type #'s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcmmidwest 98 Posted October 31, 2013 furthermore when calvin gets doubled nate will become stafford's security blanket & bush's run game gets opened more at least that's what i saw 1st few games Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_future420 3 Posted October 31, 2013 I agree. I think he will be a solid player that you can count on down the stretch, especially in PPR. Grab him now if you can because he will probably be the #1 WW pickup next week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barber2309 26 Posted October 31, 2013 Do I drop Reuben Randle for him or was Randle's bad week a fluke? I already have Stafford as my starting QB and Joique on my bench (Joique would be the only other droppable guy in my roster). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_future420 3 Posted October 31, 2013 I would prefer Burleson over Randle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
travis_henrys_baby_momma 10 Posted October 31, 2013 I hope he sticks with the DiGiorno http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/24151023/lions-wr-nate-burleson-gets-free-pizzas-for-a-year-after-accident Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcmmidwest 98 Posted November 1, 2013 amazes me he is only owned by 12% of the leagues ..,yet worthless players like kenbrell thompkins is owned by 70% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JTB 52 Posted November 1, 2013 Smart people picked him up last week. It's not like you didn't know when he was coming back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted November 1, 2013 I grabbed him two weeks ago in my deep 16 team league. He's only averaging 7 pts per game in standard leagues (13 in ppr) so he's probably WR3 territory. But he's in a high-powered offense and has Calvin and Reggie Bush that defenses have to account for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcmmidwest 98 Posted November 2, 2013 Good thing Blackmon decided to dope up before the weekend now I don't have to waste my waiver priority on Nate..., welcome to the team buddy:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DamageIncVacc 6 Posted November 2, 2013 Save your move. Mort said yesterday that its still a while for Nate Nate Burleson: Nate Burleson needs more time Nate Burleson - WR - DET - Nov. 1 - 6:15 pm et ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported on NFL Live Friday that Nate Burleson (arm) is not expected back after the Lions' Week 9 bye.It sounds like he'll need at least a few more games before he's ready to play following a car accident that fractured Burleson's arm. "He will not be back (after) the bye week," reported Mort. "Give him a couple more weeks at least." Kris Durham will continue to hold down No. 2 receiver duties in Detroit.

phins1921 10 Posted November 20, 2013 I think I might go with Streater then. McGlovin was named starter a few hours ago. Moore is also injured. I think you may be right about Harvin numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
southcarolina 166 Posted November 24, 2013 I started him, which makes me a genius. Course I also started Ray rice, which makes me a dumbass Penalties offset, replay first down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WR Guru 31 Posted November 25, 2013 What to do with Burleson moving forward? He has a spotty track record of inconsistency throughout his career, which is the only thing that scares me away from him. But he's averaging 6-7 catches and 80 yards in the four games he's played. He's a clear #2 receiving option on a team that throws a ton. He's got three of his next four at home, indoors, and the one road game is at Philly, one of the lowest ranked pass defenses. He's a little long in the tooth, but should have fresh legs after 2+ months off. Or is he the same old Nate who, as soon as he piques your interest, he will go out and drop a 2/25-0 turd the next week? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Birk 14 Posted November 25, 2013 im starting him next week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
josepaz2 1 Posted November 25, 2013 Plugged him into my starting lineup at 11:59 CST. But lost my week anyways. Have to pick between Burleson, Shorts, K. Allen, and Bowe for WR2 next week. Burleson probably has the best matchup so likely roll with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stonewall 647 Posted November 25, 2013 Pretty much has to be a weekly start now, unless you have great options. I will definitely be starting him in front of Amendola. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is his whole career in a nutshell. Looks real good for a game or two, enough to grab your interest...then pulls the rug out. Shame on me. I knew better. Dropped Cameron to clear roster space for this hack. Gonna haunt me if he decides to wake up this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
