Adonai AD Mitchell Official Thread

[Cameron Giles]

He has 3 main reasons why I avoid him:

1. His yprr is bleep. And like 90% who has the same yprr ended up being busts or unproductive in fantasy

2. He's a body catcher which in the NFL is a red flag considering the player removes his arm length completely when catching any ball. It becomes irrelevant, and if a DB gets his hand in there, it's easier to defend than someone like Hopkins

3. His situation. Pittman is #1 and then there isn't much left outside of him. AR is the average RB who throws 30 times a game, 10 of those go to Pittman, the rest are split. You are basically hoping he gets 100+ yards and a TD of 3-4 targets, which Alec pierce could not.

To expand on this:

- Career 1.68 YPRR
- 1.75 YPRR vs. Zone Coverage
- 95.5 Targeted QB Rating vs. Zone
- 3.0 YAC/R (2.6 YAC/R excluding screens)
- .18 Targets Per Route Run
- Career 1.4 Receiving Yards Per Team Pass Attempt
- Career 1.2 YPRR vs. Press Coverage

There are a lot of very low statistical data points for Mitchell. You'd be hard pressed to find a really good WR who succeeded in spite of the above. That said, one of Mitchell's saving graces is how good he performs against man the last two years, which is about 3+ YPRR. His tape is full of very good flashes beating defenders in man.

Full of very good flashes beating very good (read: NFL drafted) defenders in man.***

His YPRR is low but as mentioned above, they did not give him the easy stuff at Texas. He didn't get boat loads of hitches, slants, etc. Those went to Worthy probably because it's better for AD to block for Worthy than vice versa. AD operated downfield and Ewers is to put it mildly.... erratic. Some of AD's best plays are him correcting what Ewers effed up.

Yeah for me the absence of any YAC is surprising and problematic for someone that is 6'2" 200+lbs and RAS of 9.97 or something like that. You'd think the athletic ability would translate to YAC but there's literally nothing there for Mitchell. One thing the Underdog guys did say was that he was targeted downfield an incredible amount of times (30% of targets) so when you are 1:1 and possibly contested catch you may not have the same opportunity for YAC as someone that gets spoon fed 5 screens per game.

For the YPRR lovers.
Success by route.


Targets.
The takeaway here is that he was asked to be downfield and not given easy routes that went to Worthy.

I will be avoiding him at all costs when he goes top 6 in SF next year… just have never seen anything special in him.

I think a lot of things are true at the same time:

- Ewers improved a little, but is still bad.
- Mitchell may have been underutilized given his success against man coverage
- Worthy may have got easier routes because he is really good after the catch and Mitchell has not shown anything comparable
- Mitchell is awful against zone, which limits his upside
- Overcoming a very weak collegiate statistical and analytics profile is not ideal

Browse about. You'll see hundreds of his comments. I don't have to try to make him look bad.

Back to the topic, which is basically #EwersIsTerrible

Thanks, man. I post up insight when I have it. Sometimes it IS valuable just to say, "I agree with the sentiment" or "I like Mitchell, wish I had more shares, haven't gotten any." Any opinions shared have the potential to sway or help or change opinion.
