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. Tommy Maher's strongest measure is catch rate at 74%, 45th of 485 (the average is 61%). His weakest is target share at 14%, 321st of 485 (the average is 17%).
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, 49, ranks 142nd 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 53rd percentile for volume, 85th for efficiency and 61st 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 7 games, Tommy Maher's best came in week 8 against San Diego State and his quietest in week 3 against BYU.
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. Tommy Maher is 123rd of 485 FBS wide receivers and 7th of 30 in the Pac-12. Next up nationally is Nico Brown of Stanford, 0.00 ahead on the index.
Career
Why it matters. Past seasons show whether this year is a breakout, a steady climb or a step back. This is his best season by the Player Index so far, out of 2 we have.
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 Marcus Calwise Jr. of Louisiana Tech.
