There is no denying that Dixon's game translating to the NFL is far from a given; he is unsurprisingly raw throughout his route; his release technique, footwork at his break, and working back to the football are all a work in progress; He also is not the shiftiest receiver and more of a linear streaker but without the top-end speed to begin with; concerns about his ability to beat press-man coverage

Negative signalBust

Dixon's raw route-running and lack of elite speed raise significant questions about NFL skill translation.

Game translating to NFL far from given; at Culver-Stockton, Dixon was typically best athlete on field with clear advantage over opposition, raising questions about skill translation; route-running is raw throughout with release technique, footwork at break, and working back to football all works in progress; not shifty and more of linear streaker but without top-end speed (4.50s 40-yard dash, 7.05s 3-cone drill); concerns about ability to beat press-man coverage; sample size too small and of entirely different quality than what he will face as pro.
