Burton is quick but he doesn’t get open early. This is usually a sign of bad hand work to get disengaged from press man and/or sloppy route running that doesn’t maximize spacing off change of direction.
It is telling that almost all of Burton’s biggest plays were occasions that protection or Young’s escapability allowed him to run across the width of the field deep for a reception. He can separate using his speed with enough time.
I tend to think his biggest problem is sloppiness with his footwork, hips, etc that isn’t creating the separation expected from a cut inward or outward. We’ve had some legendary route runners lately, so he’s getting some tough comps. Guys like Juedy and Smitty were masters at working those advantages.

Full disclosure.
I don't watch Bama. I don't see what you see.
Burton is a + at separation off of the line.
He is a + at late separation to the ball.
He thinks he is strong, but it didn't translate to UGA from high school.

Burton isn't a burner. Your expectations are for a far superior athlete. You are looking for something and blaming it on hips and feet. He just isn't that guy.
In 2020 as a freshman, he had Bama defenders on spin cycle. But the ball didn't go his way (he wasn't Pickens. And didn't have full faith by QBs because he didn't know offense well enough).
He can run routes. He just isn't going to be the better athlete against the better teams.

Spot on and the same observation GA fans were saying on the "in game" threads.
