From the episode

I think the one that I'm most nervous about right now is Colson Loveland, just based on the fact that, you know, Luther Burton has actually been seeing looks in the offense. So like, I don't think that's going to necessarily go away... his usage is just varies like the way that the routes that he runs every week, the way that they deploy him changes more than a dunze and burden.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Loveland's role uncertain; Burton's looks may limit his upside.

JJ Zachariason is most nervous about Colston Loveland among the three drafted Bears pass catchers because Luther Burton has been receiving offensive looks that are unlikely to disappear; Loveland's usage varies week-to-week in terms of routes and deployment, making him harder to project than Roma Dunze or Burton.
