CB production emphasizes passer rating allowed, breakups, target avoidance, missed tackles, and availability.

The displayed performance component is recency-weighted across qualifying 2025, 2024, 2023 seasons.

The non-QB forecast target is next-season position-relative production, not an independent film or talent grade.
