Treadwell is very good, but has he really lived up to the hype yet. I have not watched Ole Miss this year, so can't comment on this year. But last year, it seemed like he was thrown nothing but screen passes that usually resulted in 5-8 yard gains.
I hate Ole Miss from the bottom of my heart but Treadwell is going to be awesome. He may not have the speed of Moncrief or McCluster but he is a huge physical receiver with good hands in the mold of Anquon Bolden or Brandon Marshall.

He played the slot last year.
He's the outside receiver this year. He's been thrown a lot more posts, fades, fade stops, etc. this year. I don't think we've thrown a bubble screen his way yet...maybe once, though we have used him in a jet sweep type shovel pass.
His YPC last year was 8.4. He's up to 15.4 this year.
His overall numbers (20 catches) aren't as big as they could be, because if a team shades coverage his way, as most have, we'll just go to Sanders (18 ), Core (17), Engram (14), or Adeboyjo (11). The bubble screen has been used some this year, but we haven't used it as much as we used it late last year. I'm guessing Bo's arm strength being back to 100% has something to do with us throwing a lot more fades, posts, and seam routes than we did toward the end last year.
