That's a crazy rise over that span.

Oh, wow. Cool stat, I didn't know that. Thanks.

Definitely interesting...also would imagine that there is a direct correlation to the NFL changing in general though. More 4-5 WR sets = more undrafted guys playing. I'd take a guess the CB % would represent a similar spike.

Although there is definitely a sentiment of waiting on drafting a WR though. Definitely a high bust rate at the position because of teams reaching for the freak athletes.

There is, but it's smaller. I think it was 12% to 18% over the same time span.

New England had 2 UDFAs, a 7, and a 4 active as WRs during the Super Bowl. Their 1 was inactive.
