Ross is lower than 50 right now but I think he'll be better if they A) use him more on shorter routes, and B) get a QB who has better deep ball accuracy.
Interestingly, Henderson was always considered a WR2/3 in New Orleans and Brown was basically the same in Arizona. Brown has since elevated his game to WR1/2 the past two years in Baltimore and Buffalo.
If Ross can remain healthy for 12+ games a year, I definitely see him in the 700+ yard range with a handful of TDs.
Burrow does a good job of dropping the ball in the proverbial bucket, which should help Ross. Still, he has injury issues and that has probably hampered him working through his consistency issues. He's dangerous, but not someone I would count on. If he's healthy next year with Boyd and a legit #2, look out though.
