Real PPR floor, shaky certainty.

The receiving work is the draw — 69 catches in 2025 on a 60% carry share, powering RB16 value near 12.5 PPG. But the model's confidence is its lowest here at 56, a nod to backfield and offense questions. Fair at a Round 3 cost; the floor is real, the certainty isn't.
