Nico Collins
Elite hands, weak separation
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).
91: elite creator
One number for how well Collins 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 98 (#3 of 121).
Trend and schedule are shown for context but kept out of the number: over a handful of games they're mostly noise.
This week's lines against his last 17
Each bar is a game; green cleared the line. "Market says" is the bookmaker's price with the margin taken out. Our own prop model is switched off until it passes a public audit, so this is history and the market, not a tip.
Receiving yards over 76.5
Receptions over 5.5

How JAX defend it
Ranked of 32, last 17 games. Green is a weakness to attack.
- Jacksonville are mid-table or better at every depth over their last 17 games. Collins's likeliest route is deep balls (20% of his targets), where they rank 13th.
- Don't force short throws: they've been Collins's worst return (-0.02 EPA a target), and Jacksonville are 1st there.
- Contested catches aren't his edge this week: he's 3rd percentile for separation and 93rd for hands, and Jarrian Jones and Jourdan Lewis both allow fewer yards per target than the average corner (7.4).
- Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
