One of the most common statistics used in evaluating wide receiver draft prospects is yards per route run. YPRR is a stable metric from college to the NFL and year-to-year in the NFL. However, like any evaluation tool, it isn’t perfect at identifying future star NFL players.
The idea with personnel-adjusted YPRR is to dive even deeper into the data and provide more context into a player’s production — specifically, which ones were put in more or less favorable situations based on how many other wide receivers were on the field with them on any given play.
