Chargers | Two Chargers sign tenders Mon Apr 3, 11:55 PM
Los Angeles Chargers RB Andre Williams and WR Isaiah Burse signed their exclusive-rights tenders Monday, April 3.
| Footballguys view: Williams looked as good or better than he did at any time in his Giants career when he got on the field late last season. If he can make the team, he could be the primary early-down back-up to Melvin Gordon. |

Chargers | Dexter McCluster signs with Chargers Tue Sep 20, 03:47 PM
Updating a previous report, free-agent RB Dexter McCluster (Titans) signed with the San Diego Chargers Tuesday, Sept. 20. WR Isaiah Burse was subsequently waived.
| Footballguys view: Without Danny Woodhead, the Chargers needed to sign a change-of-pace back. McCluster knows the system as he worked under Chargers OC Ken Whisenhunt when the two were with the Titans. McCluster can fill the Woodhead role, but he won't look as good or be as productive. We think Melvin Gordon gets an even larger role with Woodhead out. |

Chargers | Isaiah Burse not seizing chance Thu Aug 11, 12:32 AM
San Diego Chargers WR Isaiah Burse had been seeing time in the slot with WR Stevie Johnson (knee) sidelined, but the first-team reps have faded in recent practices, according to beat writer Michael Gehlken.
| Footballguys view: Burse is going to see time continue to decline, especially as Tyrell Williams continues to ascend. If anything, we see Williams as the third receiver, occasionally moving Keenan Allen to the slot. |

Broncos | Several players cut Sat Sep 5, 03:40 PM
Denver Broncos WRS Isaiah Burse, Corbin Louks and Jordan Taylor and RB Kapri Bibbs were released Saturday, Sept. 5.

Broncos | Isaiah Burse will get chance Mon Jul 20, 10:08 PM
Denver Broncos WR Isaiah Burse narrowly missed out on a job last season as the punt return man, but he went to the practice squad instead and finished the season there. He needs to show development as a slot receiver in training camp and the preseason, but could be in the mix for a job if things break right.
| Footballguys view: Burse has good explosion and change-of-direction ability. As a slot receiver, Burse can be dangerous in the open field. This skill set also helps him impress as a return man. |

Broncos | Six signed to futures deals Mon Jan 12, 06:58 PM
Denver Broncos RB Kapri Bibbs, WR Isaiah Burse, WR Bennie Fowler, WR Nathan Palmer, C Matt Paradis and DE Gerald Rivers were signed to Reserve/Futures contracts Monday, Jan. 12.
| Footballguys view: Bibbs and Fowler are the two players to watch here in super super deep dynasty leagues. Fowler was a UDFA out of Michigan State this year, and he has a lot of Anquan Boldin to his game. Bibbs was a star at Colorado State, and he runs with great balance and a nose for the end zone (31 rushing touchdowns for the Rams in 2013). |

Broncos | Isaiah Burse re-signed Tue Dec 9, 06:25 AM
The Denver Broncos re-signed WR Isaiah Burse to their practice squad on Monday, Dec. 8, after Burse cleared waivers earlier in the day. OL Mark Asper was waived to make room for Burse.
| Footballguys view: Burse can be counted on as a return man, and that's why the Broncos brought him back. He lost his roster spot last week so the Broncos could add kickoff specialist Brandon McManus. |

Broncos | Isaiah Burse to return punts? Sun Aug 24, 05:18 AM
Denver Broncos WR Isaiah Burse may get first crack at the punt return job because of an injury suffered by WR Jordan Norwood (knee).
| Footballguys view: Burse was the talk of minicamp at the return position, but he was outplayed in training camp by Norwood. With the season-ending knee injury to Norwood, Burse has another shot to make the final roster as the sixth receiver and primary return man. |

Broncos | Wes Welker tops depth chart as punt returner Thu Aug 7, 02:23 PM
Denver Broncos WR Wes Welker is at the top of the depth chart as the team's punt returner ahead of WR Jordan Norwood and WR Isaiah Burse.
| Footballguys view: The Broncos will take any edge they can get to improve field position in their quest to return to the Super Bowl. Of course, given his concussion history, perhaps this is a poor idea and it may not last long. Right now Welker is considered a low-end WR2 or a high-end WR3. |

Broncos | Isaiah Burse could make team Thu Jul 17, 02:18 PM
Denver Broncos WR Isaiah Burse has a chance to make the final roster as a returner but will have to perform well in the role during preseason games.
| Footballguys view: Burse caught 100 passes for Fresno State last year, but he went undrafted this year. He's quick, fast and dangerous with the ball in his hands. The Broncos are looking for a new return man after letting Trindon Holliday (Giants) go in free agency. Burse could be that guy. |

Broncos | Wide open behind Top 3 receivers Wed Jul 16, 11:31 PM
Denver Broncos WRs Demaryius Thomas, Wes Welker and Emmanuel Sanders will be the top three wide receivers, with WRs Andre Caldwell and Cody Latimer also in the plans. Undrafted WR Isaiah Burse has potential but will have to show some significant pop in the preseason games to earn a potential job as return man and possible sixth receiver.
| Footballguys view: Latimer is the player to watch here. He's likely to be a starter in 2015 on the outside with Sanders moving into the slot next year. For this season, don't go overboard on Latimer but know the team may mix him in when they get near the red zone because of his size and wingspan. Latimer is a talented player who could have been a first-round pick. |

Broncos | Isaiah Burse signing bonus details Tue May 20, 04:11 PM
Denver Broncos WR Isaiah Burse received a $12,500 signing bonus, which was the highest among the Broncos' undrafted signings, because of his ability on special teams. Burse has received praise from Broncos head coach John Fox for his dual return ability, especially on punts.
| Footballguys view: Keep an eye on this playmaker. Our very own Cecil Lammey has been out at Broncos rookie minicamp every day, and Burse has been a standout player. He's lightning quick and agile in the open field. Burse is a threat to score every time he touches the ball, and he could win a spot on the final roster because of his upside as a return man. |

Broncos | John Elway talks Isaiah Burse Mon May 12, 05:06 PM
Denver Broncos WR Isaiah Burse's chances to stick with the team could be increased by his ability to return kickoffs and punts, according to Broncos general manager John Elway. Elway noted Burse was a very productive slot receiver.
| Footballguys view: Elway said in an interview on ESPN Denver that they were considering Burse as a late-round pick. |
Broncos | Undrafted rookies agree to terms Sun May 11, 12:46 AM
The Denver Broncos have agreed to terms on undisclosed contracts with undrafted rookie free agents DE Kenny Anunike (Duke), LB Shaquil Barrett (Colorado State), RB Kapri Bibbs (Colorado State), WR Isaiah Burse (Fresno State), P Steven Clark (Auburn), RB Brennan Clay (Oklahoma), DT Mister Cobble (Kentucky), WR Bennie Fowler (Michigan State), WR Greg Hardin (North Dakota), DE Greg Latta (Purdue), QB Bryn Renner (North Carolina), OT Aslam Sterling (Kansas), RB Juwan Thompson (Duke) and CB Louis Young (Georgia Tech) Saturday, May 10.
| Footballguys view: Bibbs is a hard-nosed back who lacks great burst, but he could be a serviceable backup in an offense that forces opponents to focus on shutting down Peyton Manning. |

| Footballguys view: This is a deep class of wide receivers. Our five favorite to watch? Sammy Watkins (Clemson), Mike Evans (Texas A&M), Marqise Lee (USC), Jordan Matthews (Vanderbilt) and Kelvin Benjamin (Florida State). A couple of more? Paul Richardson (Colorado), Odell Beckham Jr. (LSU), Jarvis Landry (LSU) and Robert Herron (Wyoming). We could go on and on raving about this draft class. |
