McLaurin's 2025 was largely wiped out by injury–nine games, a WR56 finish overall–but the per-game numbers (WR34 at 9.7 ppg) and the limited underlying metrics tell you the player is still very much there. His PFF route grade (94th percentile) and YPRR (90th percentile) were both elite in 10 games, and his 84th-percentile ESPN CATCH score confirms he converts his opportunities cleanly when healthy. The YAC numbers (10th-percentile ESPN, 20th-percentile PFF) show the same limitation as always–he doesn't create after the catch, making him dependent on volume and touchdowns. In the 18 games where Jayden Daniels has played at least 85 percent of the snaps, McLaurin has averaged 4.3 catches, 60 yards, and 0.67 touchdowns per game, or 12.1 fantasy points, low-end WR1 numbers. Washington's vacated target pool is enormous–222 total targets representing 52.4% of the team's volume. With Daniels healthy and that target share redistributing, McLaurin should be the primary beneficiary. He's going as the WR25, and if both McLaurin and Daniels stay healthy, McLaurin should be able to beat that.
