Scouting report
Why it matters. Knowing the one or two things a player does best, and where he is ordinary, says more than any single total. Rasean Jones's strongest measure is target success rate at 65%, 24th of 485 (the average is 49%). Even his lowest-ranked one is good: catch rate at 71%, 70th of 485 (the average is 61%).
Season production
Why it matters. Totals reward staying healthy and getting the ball; per-game numbers show how much he really carries each week. His receiving yards per game, 79, ranks 31st among 485 ranked wide receivers.
Against every wide receiver
Why it matters. Splitting the measures into how much, how well and how many big plays shows what kind of wide receiver he is. Among ranked wide receivers he sits, on average, in the 94th percentile for volume, 90th for efficiency and 93rd for impact.
The season, game by game
Why it matters. A season average can hide a player who is great one week and absent the next; game by game shows how dependable he is. Over 8 games, Rasean Jones's best came in week 9 against Texas State and his quietest in week 4 at Western Michigan.
When it matters
Why it matters. Plenty of players produce in easy situations; the ones who keep it up on third down and against good teams are the ones coaches trust.
Where he does his damage
Why it matters. Where and how a player makes his plays shows how his team uses him and what a defense has to take away.
National and conference
Why it matters. A national rank shows how a player stacks up beyond his own league, where the competition can be very different. Rasean Jones is 20th of 485 FBS wide receivers and 2nd of 30 in the Pac-12. Next up nationally is Justin Bowick of Oklahoma State, 0.03 ahead on the index.
Wide receivers like him
Why it matters. Comparing a player with his closest statistical matches puts his season in context beyond the rankings. His closest match this season is Griffin Wilde of Northwestern.
