Red zone volume is the part of a scoring role that carries between seasons; touchdowns themselves are far noisier than the usage that produced them.

Projection in all three formats

Formats are not rescalings of one another. Dropping the point per reception reorders the board, because a possession receiver’s value is mostly catches and a runner’s is mostly yards.
