How about face value… Burks has been more productive vs tight man to man coverage when lined up on the outside than his peers… by a lot.I'm not exactly sure what this means? Or what I'm supposed to take from this?
He almost never saw press coverage from that stat though. And it's yards per route run. So they measured how far the player went downfield against press? Regardless of getting the ball? Seems like this is more a result of scheming then anything else. Unless I'm missing what the stat actually is?How about face value… Burks has been more productive vs tight man to man coverage when lined up on the outside than his peers… by a lot.
Does the stat factor the competition for touches some offenses like OSU or Alabama might have… no, but no stat ever provides the full picture
So basically Burks looks great because when teams pressed him Arkansas just threw at him. And he either rarely played outside or teams rarely pressed him. It tells you something, but I don't think it tells a whole lot.Total yards generated from that alignment under press divided by the number of times they ran it. Total yards— Dotson had over 806 while Burks had 343 and Olave 619.
The stat implies that yardage alone is not telling enough of expected production vs press on the outside from a given play.

I actually like Burks but he scares me a little. Not because he lined up in the slot more than on the outside (Anymore star WRs line up there in the NFL because you can do more with a guy there and they face slot corners) Not because he is a raw route runner either. What scares me about Burks is he looks kind of chunky or thick. I'm worried that the guy is going to get too big once he hits the NFL.Not sure where you get all that
It’s only saying he’s a better option on the outside than the raw yardage numbers would.
That’s it.
I am getting the impression you are not a Burks fan.
It is an interesting stat but teams like Ohio State and Alabama who often have multiple productive receivers have lower stats because of it. They also generally have decent running backs that will further skew the average.Not sure where you get all that

All 3 of them? Not likely.
I'd be surprised if all 3 did. But individually any of the three absolutely could.

The Jags are going to blow this yet again.
I snagged Walker at +200 for 1st overall like 2 weeks ago, love that.
I get the Dean situation because he's undersized and hasn't run at all during the pre-draft process, that's a definite red flag considering the talent he played behind on that Georgia DL.
