Bama's big transfer receiver was losing snaps last season to a freshman 2 star at Georgia and may have seen the writing on the wall.




Not entirely. Burton was good. Really good. He just tended to get nicked up a bit and miss time. He was actually my favorite receiver. He just couldn't stay healthy.

If he stays healthy he will be a great weapon for Alabama.

He is healthy now and isn’t a great weapon yet. I am sure bama is saving it all for uga yet again though.

Mcconkey is much slippery than Burton.
We would throw Burton these screens and he would just lower his head and plow.
McConkey is significantly better after the catch.

Burton is better off the line (stronger) than McConkey. They both can create separation on their routes.
Burton is slightly more explosive to the ball. But McConkey is faster.

We really didn't lose much with Burton leaving.
I do think Burton could fill in to the X better with AD Mitchell's injury. No
Burton isn't a true #1 target. A double team can eliminate him. But he can win one on one's.

Burton was getting outsnapped by Ladd McConkey by the end of last season and Burton knew that this year wouldn't have been any better.
