One on one coverage every game is definitely an awful way to showcase a WR.
Darren Waller was barely a 3 star prospect and didn't have substantial PT until his senior year. I'm sure UGA fans remember him in one on one coverage in your endzone where your CB had no shot. He got drafted.
Further, you want to talk about blocking? GT probably has the best crop of blocking WRs which NFL teams value highly. WRs are asked to block a lot at GT but they get their shots to show their skills to in one on one coverage.
If the 3O is so shitty then why does GT have a pretty good number of GT 3O WRs in the NFL? The only 4* is D. Thomas. The rest were 3*. So it's not necessarily because their talent made up for it.
It's because the NFL scouts like WRs that can block and catch. Route trees can be learned a lot easier than blocking technique.

The triple option is trash. There is a reason no reciever with a high ranking commits to GT anymore. No one wants to spend 56 minutes a game blocking and running gimmick plays. Yes, players get drafted and he could go there and get drafted on ability alone but it won't change the fact that the offense is certifiable shite for WRs.
