Our last big stats project before the 2019 season begins is our now-annual look at DVOA by pass routes. Sports Info Solutions' charting allows us to break down receivers by their routes -- seeing which routes they run most often, and at which they are the most effective. It helps paint a more complete picture of each receiver's skill set and usage patterns. Some of this data appeared throughout Football Outsiders Almanac 2019.
Whenever you're breaking down a subset of a subset, small sample size caveats apply. However, we've been doing these studies for three years now, and we're seeing a fair amount of year-to-year consistency, which makes sense.
