DeVonta Smith
Best at volume, weak after the catch
Each axis is a percentile against every qualified wide receiver over the same window. The dashed white shape is the position average; the gold ring marks elite (90th percentile).
95: elite creator
One number for how well Smith has actually played lately, not a talent rating. 70% is the skill profile, weighted towards efficiency; the rest is how steady his games are and whether he still produces against the better defences. Ranked against every qualified wide receiver; 99 is the best. Over the last three seasons he scores 93 (#13 of 121).
Trend and schedule are shown for context but kept out of the number: over a handful of games they're mostly noise.

How CHI defend it
Ranked of 32, last 17 games. Green is a weakness to attack.
- Chicago rank 25th against deep balls, and 19% of Smith's targets travel 20+ yards (the average WR is at 17%).
- Work the middle: 16% of his targets go that way and Chicago rank 27th defending throws there.
- Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
