    "writeup": "Carolina handed McMillan a full alpha role as a rookie, and the usage is the whole argument at his price. He played 87 percent of the snaps, drew a 25.4 percent target share (92nd percentile), and commanded a 44.5 percent air-yards share that ranked second among all qualifiers, an extreme downfield burden for a 23-year-old. Results were lumpier than the role: a 57.4 percent catch rate in the bottom quarter, eight drops at a 6.6 percent rate, little after-catch creation, and a 70-catch, 1,014-yard line that almost exactly matched his expected points. That last part matters because it means the production was real opportunity rather than variance, and catch rate on a deep-target diet is precisely the thing that tends to improve in year two. His 37.2 ADP at WR14 runs three spots ahead of the 188-point projection, Vegas ranks Carolina 24th by implied totals, and he carries a questionable designation into camp. The wager is the classic second-year one, that a near-league-leading air-yards share ages better than a rookie catch rate, and the market has already paid a modest premium for it.",
