86: high-end starter

One number for how well Elliott 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 safetie; 99 is the best. Over the last three seasons he scores 83 (#33 of 120).
