    "writeup": "Minnesota watched Jones underperform his opportunity by 16.7 points last season, one of the largest shortfalls at the position, and the underlying rates say it wasn't bad luck. His 68.3 percent catch rate was the worst among qualified RB receivers, his 4.9 yards per target sat in the 13th percentile, and his rush yards over expected went negative at minus 0.12 per attempt. The decline shows up on both sides of his usage at once, which at 31 is the pattern that tends not to reverse. The market has him at pick 107 in half-PPR as RB36 while the consensus projects RB34, meaning there is no real discount, just a bet that a nine-year veteran rebounds toward a projection his 2025 rates don't support. He did still command a 78th-percentile target share and 55 percent of snaps across his 12 games, which keeps a floor under the volume as long as the role holds. Buying in here requires believing the role survives another year while the per-touch numbers keep sliding, and that combination has a short shelf life at this age.",
