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 9 games, Caesar Magee's best came in week 4 at Texas Tech and his quietest in week 9 at Missouri State.
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. Caesar Magee is 584th of 921 FBS defensive backs and 44th of 77 in Conference USA. Next up nationally is Donovan Starr of Clemson, 0.00 ahead on the index.
Defensive backs 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 Matthew McClelland of Southern Illinois.
