In regards to the below thread @Roundybout started relating to Bills WR lack of separation.  I think an easy test of whether that actually matters or not could be decided if at this point in time, if people would rather have Xavier Worthy who is undeniably a better separator than Coleman.   According to next gen stats Worthy's avg separation is 3.6 to Keon's 2.2.   I suspect most people after half a season of play to evaluate would rather keep Coleman over Worthy but let's let the votes speak for themselves.

My post wasn’t a “Coleman vs. Worthy” post. I did not like the pick, but he’s shown skills that have been sorely lacking on our team - a big jump ball catcher. 
 

My post was discussion of a general concern that our corps as a whole still doesn’t separate well, so it’s on Josh to be very accurate and Brady to scheme them up better.

 

Now, the separation will certainly improve when Cooper is involved more, but right now it’s not great.

I've always viewed Cooper as a good route runner with some good contested catch ability, not a true separator.   If we're putting any stock in these stats, Cooper's yards of separation is only 2.8 which would put him in the bottom half of the league for starting WRs and 3rd on the Bills.   

 

Interestingly enough Kalil Shakir is currently ranked 9th in the league with an average separation of 4.3.
