Model receipt
LB production balances tackling, pressure, non-sack disruption, coverage results, breakups, and missed tackles.
The displayed performance component is recency-weighted across qualifying 2025, 2024 seasons.
OVR uses the validated one-season baseline because it outperformed the prior composite in the 2024-2025 walk-forward audit.
The non-QB forecast target is next-season position-relative production, not an independent film or talent grade.
OVR preserves that forecast ordering on the common position-relative grade scale; the separately displayed projection stays regressed for uncertainty and team impact.
