Elite receiver skill sustains 73%+ catchable target rate across three seasons

Puka NacuaWRLAR

Nakua is identified as an unfavorable regression candidate on the surface, but this should not be interpreted as negative. He has maintained at least a 73% catchable target rate in each of his last three seasons (per Fantasy Pros), making him one of the few players who consistently makes uncatchable balls catchable. He receives a high rate of targets near the line of scrimmage but also a high rate of downfield targets, suggesting his efficiency is driven by elite receiver skill rather than scheme, positioning him to sustain his production.
