92: elite creator

One number for how well Olave 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 83 (#33 of 121).

The read
  1. the Giants rank 29th against intermediate throws, which make up 28% of Olave's targets.
  2. Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
