Mitchell's elite air yards share and improved QB situation support post-hype upside.

Adonai Mitchell is a textbook post-hype sleeper at ADP 217 (WR81) who hasn't lived up to his second-round pedigree but has flashed potential. In eight games for the Jets, Mitchell posted 75.3% route participation, 14.7-yard aDOT, 52.6% air yards share, 23.6% target share, 0.26 TPRR, 24 receptions (3.0 per game), 301 receiving yards (37.6 per game), 1.37 YPRR, 6 end-zone targets, 2 TDs (1 on end-zone targets), 5 drops (8.6%), 6.7 half-PPR points per game, and 13.3 expected half-PPR points per game. Mitchell had drop issues and was inefficient, but he ranked first among 61 wide receivers with at least 150 routes from Week 11-18 in air yards share and had impressive target numbers and expected fantasy points. Quarterback Geno Smith, acquired from the Raiders, should be an upgrade over the Jets' previous motley crew of QBs (Brady Cook, Tyrod Taylor, Justin Fields, and Isaiah Williams). Mitchell charted well, tying for 34th among 84 wide receivers with at least 250 routes in average separation score and ranking 21st in average separation when aligned wide, his projected position for the Jets.
