"writeup": "Smith-Njigba's hold on Seattle's passing game had no equal last year: a 35.9 percent target share and a 48.6 percent air-yards share, both first at the position, a rare double since most target hogs feed underneath while most air-yards leaders are lower-volume deep threats. He did both at an 11.3-yard aDOT and still caught 73 percent of it, which is how you produce a league-best 1,793 receiving yards. The caution flag is a plus-66 gap between his 300 actual points and 235 expected from usage, second-largest at the position, built on 11.0 yards per target that will be hard to repeat. Two things soften it: the yardage came on real depth rather than YAC variance, and the target share is extreme enough that even meaningful efficiency regression leaves a top-five receiver. Seattle's implied totals sit ninth on early lines, decent rather than great. The projection lands at 269 points and WR3, exactly where the market prices him at a 7.3 ADP, which makes this sticker price for the most defensible usage profile in the elite tier.",
