Note: separation does not refer to number of yards of separation, but is the average earned separation (graded on a -2 to +2 scale) https://twitter.com/throwthedamball/status/1729576931299823974?t=cy7JHCGA3VVD-24SzUq06Q&s=19

How much do these type of statistics really translate to anything of real value? I’d take a guy that could catch a ball with 2 defenders all over them over one who gets wide open and drops everything. Then again, I’ll admit I don’t know what most of these graphs mean or how they are compiled, or who makes the call on what is considered separation. Analytics are fascinating, but not gospel.
