The model bets on the bounce-back volume.

A seven-game 2025 masks the talent — 36 catches for 395 yards in that window — and the model's confidence 83 projects a full-season rebound to 101 grabs, WR12 near 14.5 PPG. That target volume at a Round 3 cost is value, even with the Jets' shaky quarterback play.
