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).

The read
  1. Chicago rank 25th against deep balls, and 19% of Smith's targets travel 20+ yards (the average WR is at 17%).
  2. Work the middle: 16% of his targets go that way and Chicago rank 27th defending throws there.
  3. Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
