fantastic hands and so do Charlie Jones and Irwin. But Burton is just so talented I find it hard to believe if he gets his shot that he
won't put up big numbers being the 3rd guy along with Chase and Tee, not even mentioning Yoshi who is much improved in catching
the ball this year.

I think if anything, we are better at Receiver this season than last.

It's odd because Boyd was so solid catching the ball earlier in his career.

I wonder if his ego was effected by being surpassed by 2 wideouts that were more talented.
Maybe it made him lose confidence in his clutchness.
He was clutch early.

Burton--to me--reaks of clutchness. He has a mindset about him that the ball is his and his technique is great.
He's a workaholic too that wants to figure it out.

Honestly, I think Burton could be better than Tee.
Tee gets called for PI at times so if Burton can be that WR that is on the other end of the spectrum in buying calls, we could win huge.

I think my best comp for him is Beckham although I haven't seen him make the one handed catches.
They both seem to have a similar build and speed/agility about them.
Sure-handedness as well.

He's going to be his own receiver. 
I think Burton has top 10 WR potential.
