Who Should I Start? Treylon Burks or Savion Williams

Thursday, May 28, 6:01 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks has been one of the most disappointing first-round picks in recent history, in both the NFL and dynasty leagues, particularly because he was taken with the 18th overall pick the Titans acquired in the 2022 deal that sent three-time Pro Bowler A.J. Brown to the Eagles. Through his first four years in the league, Burks has caught 63 passes for 829 yards and two touchdowns. Even in latching on with one of the weakest receiver rooms in the league in 2025, Burks failed to make an impact across his first eight games with the Commanders, averaging 1.3 receptions per game. Washington is expected to have Terry McLaurin back at full health to begin the 2026 season, and after using a third-round pick on slot receiver Antonio Williams and spending up in free agency to land tight end Chig Okonkwo and pass-catching running back Rachaad White, Burks' spot on the roster looks precarious at best. He will still need to overtake Luke McCaffrey and 2025 fourth-round pick Jaylin Lane for a chance at a meaningful snap share, and as RotoBaller's dynasty WR139, his time as a player who needs to be held has long passed.
