VERY much so.

Jeremy Macklin type player?

No, I don't think he's got the speed or playmaking ability to function on the outside like Maclin.

He's a bigger slot WR. Solid, steady player. Nothing special, but very competitive. Small hands leads to some drops.

Heared he catches everything.
Aaron Burbridge had our tenth best overall grade (+21.7) among WR in this draft class and was also tenth averaging 2.85 yards per route run.

He had 10 drops in 97 opportunities last year, which is a little high. He was targeted a lot, so still made his fair share of plays.

Connor Cook doesn't throw the most catchable balls.

I know, but those 97 opportunities only include catchable balls. PFF doesn't count inaccurate throws in that stat.
Reminds me of Eddie Royal. Good pick

He has naturally good ball skills, but the small hands hinder him sometimes. Otherwise tracks the ball well.
Who cares about the size of his hands. The guy can make plays. Could be a poor mans Anquan Boldin.

based off his highlight tape, you'd think his hands are massive by the way he snatches balls out of the air.
Only one year of production, average size, below average athlete. Bad hands and only averaged 3.4 yards after the catch. It's a 6th round pick but I wouldn't get my hopes up on him. Played well vs Eli Apple and Jourdan Lewis though so that's a plus.
