I'm not boomer...
and I apologize to Boomer in advance, but I thought I would weigh in...
I think I saw something in TSN that had Burleson graded as a fourth or fifth rounder....
Now I will turn it over to Boomer.

Rob is a draft Mini Me.... :) Or Major Me. :)
I think Burleson is a reasonably solid late 3rd rounder. He's a decent route runner, productive, good hands, uses his body well, but he's not a flier by any stretch of the imagination, which may put us off. Plus, no Nevada Reno guys have ever done anything in the pros. I have to say that I went back and watched some old tape last night, which then made me dig out some tape of this year - I'd forgotten how good Bobby Wade is. All this kid does is make play after play after play. He isn't deep speedy - he's a 4.5 guy, but he gets off the line really fast - much faster than 4.4 guys and gets in and out of his cuts in a hurry and makes yards after the catch. He reminded me of an Antwan Randle El/Hines Ward hybrid - the hands and toughness of Ward and the quickness and elusiveness if Randle El. What a solid player he's going to be.
