I've said before, he's somewhere betwee 95 and 98 percent of Jamar Chase, in terms of physical abilities and skills (except I have seen Burden win a ton of routes without pushig off, and I'm not sure I can say the same about Jamar).

Yeah - I don't like the Deebo comparisons but I don't think he has Chase's fluidity or top gear either.
To stick with Chiefs WR I'm gonna go with a fairly odd pairing:
Low end -- Steve Breaston
High end -- Sammy Watkins
If the "more of a pure slot, might struggle on the boundary" stuff comes to fruition (I don't see why it would) then you have Breaston. If he fits seamlessly into that gritty, physical X role that Andy seems to like, you have Watkins (with him and Rice presenting matchup issues being able to both work inside/outside).
