Draft note

by John Paulsen

Over the last two seasons, Burkhead has averaged 7.8 touches per game and he projects for a similar role as long as Sony Michel and James White remain healthy. If either player were to miss time, Burkhead could find himself in a 12- to 15-touch role.

NE RB Rex Burkhead - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. San Francisco 49ers
James White's return to the lineup and Damien Harris's emergence as an option for early-down carries has rendered Rex Burkhead a fantasy afterthought. Burkhead has only received one target over the last two games and rushed for a total of 59 yards in that same span. Burkhead is the third option in a messy backfield and should not be started outside of extremely deep leagues.
