Matt Harmon on Drake London
From the video
I think he belongs in the kind of receiver family of like a Drake London type... a big part of unlocking Drake London was taking him from an ex-only alignment player and using him more off the ball than on the ball the last two seasons and being a guy that was like 30 plus% in the slot... his first two years under Arthur Smith, Drake London 85% snaps on the ball... these last two years under Zack Robinson in a much more motionheavy kind of more of Z receiver role. He's down to 47% and 46.7%
STACKED’s take
Drake London unlocked production by moving from X-only to 30%+ slot usage.
Matt Harmon cites Drake London as a prospect comparable to Tetairoa McMillan, noting London was 'slightly better' as a prospect. Harmon highlights that a key part of unlocking Drake London's production was moving him from X-only alignment to 30%+ slot usage, using him more off-the-ball than on-the-ball over the last two seasons. Under Arthur Smith (years 1–2), London was at 85% and 82% on-ball snap alignment as a pure X receiver; under Zack Robinson in a motion-heavy, Z receiver role, he dropped to 47% and 46.7%. This demonstrates how offensive scheme and role flexibility can dramatically shift on-ball alignment percentages, and Harmon suggests McMillan could see similar production gains by increasing to 30%+ slot usage.
