93: elite creator

One number for how well Evans 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 84 (#31 of 121).

The read
  1. Washington rank 24th against intermediate throws, which make up 38% of Evans's targets.
  2. Work the middle: 28% of his targets go that way and Washington rank 29th defending throws there.
  3. Contested catches aren't his edge this week: he's 2nd percentile for separation and 76th for hands, and Amik Robertson allows fewer yards per target than the average corner (7.4).
  4. Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
