Irwin Hate...

Part of that was believing the hype of some of these guys like Iosivas, Burton, Jones.

After 2 games, Iosivas only has 5 rec for 33 yards on 10 targets.
100 offensive snaps already, which is 38% of what he had last year.
If he continues the production pace he's on now, he'll only have 280 receiving yards.
At the amount of snaps he's getting, he needs to be on pace for 500+ to justify getting that many.

Irwin put up 25 rec for 316 yards on 429 snaps last year.
Similar to Iosivas, we expect his production to increase with more snaps.
Right now, he's playing 59% of the snaps, but he only has 2 rec for 11 yards on 8 targets.

Burton is either not far enough along in the development as many expected by this point, the coaches are being stubborn, or somewhere in the middle.

Some also expected Charlie Jones to also get some snaps on offense in his 2nd year, but that also seems to be something nonexistent.

So far, very underwhelming group based on expectations that we had or were sold on.
